Run an Example!

Run any example from telekinesis-examples repository

Clone the repository and the telekinesis-data submodule

bash
git clone --depth 1 --recurse-submodules --shallow-submodules \
  https://github.com/telekinesis-ai/telekinesis-examples.git

cd telekinesis-examples
What gets downloaded?

The flags above keep the clone small:

  • --depth 1 fetches only the latest commit, not full history.
  • --recurse-submodules --shallow-submodules also pulls the telekinesis-data submodule (sample images, point clouds, robot states), again at depth 1. Roughly 1.5 GB of free disk space is required for the telekinesis-data.

When you start using Telekinesis on your own data, you can ignore the telekinesis-data submodule - it exists purely to make the examples runnable out of the box.

Install dependencies for examples

bash
conda activate telekinesis
pip install rerun-sdk==0.31.2 pycocotools scipy

Run an example

Runs segment_image_using_sam and visualizes masks in Rerun.

bash
python examples/cornea_examples.py --example segment_image_using_sam

SAM segmentation example: input image on the left, segmentation masks on the right

SAM masks predicted from the sample input image.
