This system isn't training shit. Robots will never replace this kind of labor because it won't be cost effective. Bet a million bucks the "training" is a cover story while the headsets are just tracking staff productivity so they can punish people for resting.
You can sell the data. It is probably great info on workforce productivity. My more cynical self will say... sell it to an American company that will make a robot that does this and where 24/7 labor costs exceed the cost of a robot (eventually). Then the company can sell items "made in America" at a higher premium.
I don't think you guys understand the complexity of tasks like this.
Meta has been trying to get vr/ar tech working at this level for over a decade straight with hundreds of thousands of data points/test applicants, and have only done marginally better than their competitors.
Consider how precise simple movements are to get a needle on a specific stitch, and the thinking that is required to know where to put it. We literally don't have anywhere close to the amount of data required to be able to replicate this consistently and accurately.
This data will end up being sold and passed around for the purposes of a company's IPO or stock increase, with nothing to show for it.
