"""
Human-in-the-Loop (HIL) Data Collection with Policy Rollout.
Implements the RaC paradigm (Hu et al., 2025) for LeRobot with standard synchronous
inference. For large models with high inference latency, use hil_data_collection_rtc.py.
The workflow:
1. Policy runs autonomously
2. Press SPACE to pause - robot holds position
3. Press 'c' to take control - human provides RECOVERY + CORRECTION
4. Press → to end episode (save and continue to next)
5. Reset, then do next rollout
Keyboard Controls:
SPACE - Pause policy (robot holds position, no recording)
c - Take control (start correction, recording resumes)
→ - End episode (save and continue to next)
← - Re-record episode
ESC - Stop recording and push dataset to hub
Usage:

Human-in-the-Loop (HIL) Data Collection with Real-Time Chunking (RTC).
Implements the RaC paradigm (Hu et al., 2025) with RTC for large flow-matching models
(Pi0, Pi0.5, SmolVLA) that have high inference latency. RTC generates action chunks
asynchronously in a background thread for smooth robot control.
For fast models (ACT, Diffusion), use hil_data_collection.py instead.
The workflow:
1. Policy runs autonomously with RTC
2. Press SPACE to pause - robot holds position

"""
RaC (Recovery and Correction) Data Collection with Policy Rollout + Human Intervention.
This implements the RaC paradigm from "RaC: Robot Learning for Long-Horizon Tasks
by Scaling Recovery and Correction" (Hu et al., 2025) for LeRobot.
RaC improves upon standard data collection (BC) and prior human-in-the-loop methods
(DAgger, HG-DAgger) by explicitly collecting recovery and correction behaviors:
The workflow:
1. Policy runs autonomously
2. Press SPACE to pause - robot holds position
3. Press 'c' to take control - human provides RECOVERY + CORRECTION
4. Press → to end episode (save and continue to next)
5. Reset, then do next rollout
Key RaC Rules:
- Rule 1 (Recover then Correct): Every intervention = recovery + correction (both human)
- Rule 2 (Terminate after Intervention): Episode ends after correction
The recovery segment (teleoperating back to good state) is recorded as training data -
this teaches the policy how to recover from errors.
Keyboard Controls:
SPACE - Pause policy (robot holds position, no recording)
c - Take control (start correction, recording resumes)
→ - End episode (save and continue to next)
← - Re-record episode
ESC - Stop recording and push dataset to hub

"""
RaC (Recovery and Correction) Data Collection for OpenArms Robot with RTC.
This combines RaC data collection with Real-Time Chunking (RTC) for smooth policy execution.
RTC enables large flow-matching policies (Pi0, Pi0.5, SmolVLA) to produce reactive motion
despite high inference latency by asynchronously generating action chunks.
The workflow:
1. Policy runs autonomously with RTC (teleop is idle/free)
2. Press SPACE to pause - teleop moves to match robot position
3. Press 'c' to take control - teleop is free, human provides RECOVERY + CORRECTION
4. Press → to end episode (save and continue to next)
5. Reset, then do next rollout
Usage:
python examples/rac/rac_data_collection_openarms_rtc.py \
--robot.port_right=can0 \
--robot.port_left=can1 \
--teleop.port_right=/dev/ttyUSB0 \
