The **BC-Z** component of [**TraceX-240K**](https://hf.co/collections/spikefly/semanticvla-datasets) — the trace-annotated trajectory corpus introduced in **SemanticVLA**. This package is a LeRobot v3.0 repack of BC-Z · Open-X-Embodiment BC-Z v0.1.0 with **dense per-frame end-effector trace labels** stored directly in every frame row.
> 📚 **Code · checkpoints · paper:** https://github.com/Fei-Ni/SemanticVLA_Offcial
## 🎬 Sample trace overlays
Each clip shows the orange trace label (per-frame gripper position) overlaid on the original episode camera feed.

## 🧭 Trace label schema
Dense per-frame end-effector position columns, stored directly in every frame row:
- `trace.x` — `float32[1]`, normalized image-space x coordinate on a `[0, 100]` scale.
- `trace.y` — `float32[1]`, normalized image-space y coordinate on a `[0, 100]` scale.
`(0, 0)` is the top-left corner of the frame, `(100, 100)` the bottom-right.
