arXiv:2605. 10873v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recovering editable CAD programs from images or 3D observations is central to AI-assisted design, but progress is difficult to measure because existing evaluations are fragmented across datasets, modalities, and metrics.

RealCADBench is a new benchmark for evaluating intent‑to‑program parametric CAD modeling, featuring 12,632 tasks drawn from 19 factory‑automation categories and covering text, 2D drawings, product photos, and rendered images for both Part and Assembly modeling. The study reports results on a 1,770‑task evaluation slice, using metrics such as executability, Solid IoU, Surface IoU, and a rubric‑based visual‑semantic identity Judge. Across nine standalone and six frontier‑scale large models, no single model dominates all four metrics, highlighting diverse strengths and failure modes like missing fine structures and incorrect assembly placement.

The paper introduces a CAD‑free 3D shape prior that enhances object recognition by reconstructing each object with 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) from short RGB‑D scans and fusing the resulting shape prototype with frozen DINOv2 image features. Experiments on T‑LESS and HOPE datasets show that geometry alone can match or exceed CAD‑based recognition, and that the combined approach improves performance, especially on shape‑distinctive or partially occluded objects. The study demonstrates that the benefit comes from the geometric information rather than rendered pixels, and that the prior is complementary to frozen vision features.

CALIPER is a model‑free RGB‑D framework that performs fine‑grained recognition of visually similar industrial parts by combining support‑based appearance matching with metric size evidence. Each class is onboarded from a single turntable RGB‑D video and a few labeled real images, enabling 3D reconstruction for appearance support and depth‑aligned size profiling. At inference, a YOLOv8n‑seg model localizes parts, a frozen DINOv2 backbone with an episodically trained embedding head matches support, and margin‑conditioned metric fusion selectively uses size evidence for ambiguous cases, achieving high accuracy on 18 parts and robust enrollment of unseen screws without retraining.

VisCAD is a foundation model suite that tackles AI-assisted computer-aided design for industrial products, covering both part-level and assembly-level generation. Its core component, VisCAD‑M1, is a 27B model trained for part-level design generation and outperforms existing models on PubCADBench and RealCADBench, achieving a part-level score of 0.5540 and reaching 0.5797 when used as a test-time verifier. VisCAD also offers a domain-specific harness that improves complex assembly generation compared to general-purpose harnesses, showing quantitative and qualitative advantages.

Syn2RealTrack addresses the synthetic‑to‑real gap in multi‑camera 3D perception for warehouses by decomposing it into three distinct issues: camera calibration, object shape prior, and known object census. The pipeline corrects lens distortion from images, fuses detections with a visibility‑weighted part‑based descriptor, measures person height directly from calibration, and uses a closed‑world cardinality prior with a causal filter to eliminate phantom boxes. These local remedies allow the system to adapt without retraining a feature extractor, achieving a 3D HOTA of 52.0118% on the AI City Challenge 2026 Track 1.
