Data Upload

The data collected from teleoperation is stored locally on the TeleBox device. You can access this data locally by connecting your personal computer to the router device.

We have built-in data management programs in the TeleBox, supporting browsing, uploading, and other operations.

Before viewing and uploading data, you may need to configure the TeleBox device to connect to your computer. Refer to: Network Connection

Browse Local Data​

First, connect your computer to the TeleBox device using an Ethernet cable.

Then, open your computer's browser software. We recommend using the Windows pre-installed Edge browser or Google Chrome browser. It is not recommended to use the outdated IE browser.

Enter the TeleBox device management address in the address bar: http://10.42.0.3:7876/dashboard, and you will see the teleoperation management interface.

If you cannot access the above IP, try using ping 10.42.0.3 to see if it's reachable.

If the ping fails, you need to set the network card connection method to: Share with other computers

network_config_ubuntu

In the Data menu, you can see the list of all teleoperation data, as shown in the figure below:

Upload Data to the Cloud Platform​

To configure the data upload function, go to the System Configuration menu and select Storage Data Upload Settings, as shown below:

upload_config

By default, data will be uploaded to the IO-AI Data Platform. You can browse and annotate data online without filling in any upload configurations, as the system will automatically obtain the upload key for the IO-AI Data Platform.

Click the Get Configuration from Data Platform button in the above image to automatically populate the temporary upload key and automatically upload files to the cloud platform.

If you want to upload to other cloud service providers, you need to manually configure the upload location and key. Click on the desired cloud service provider and enter the object storage upload key obtained from the cloud service provider.

The options in the above image are cloud platform storage providers already supported by teleoperation. If you need to upload to other cloud service providers, please contact us for secondary development.

After entering the key, you can start uploading. You can first click the Test Upload button to check if the network is normal.

If successful, you will see the following green prompt.

Then you can click the Upload All at Once button to start batch uploading:

If a file has already been uploaded and its size has not changed, it will be automatically skipped and not re-uploaded.

Upload Process​

  1. Uploading is performed by the TeleBox device. Data does not pass through the IO-AI platform but is directly uploaded to the public cloud / private cloud object storage service you choose, such as Tencent Cloud Object Storage.
  2. To avoid occupying too many hardware resources, only one file will be uploaded at a time. After uploading one file, the next one will automatically start. A real-time progress bar will be displayed in the browser.
  3. If the file size is large, the TeleBox will upload the file in chunks, such as uploading 10MB at a time. If the network connection is interrupted, it will automatically re-upload. After all chunks are uploaded, you can see the corresponding data on the IO-AI platform.
  4. Both the IO-AI platform and the object storage platform have comprehensive MD5 checksum verification, ensuring that the uploaded file content is consistent with the local file. You can use it with confidence.

Manage Uploaded Data​

After the data upload is complete, you can see the corresponding data on the Cloud Storage page of the IO-AI platform. You can click the filter button to view only the data uploaded from the teleoperation device.

Afterwards, you can import the data for browsing, assigning annotation tasks, etc.
