INSPECT: Learning Robot View Selection from Assistant Use

INSPECT is a system that learns how a robot should choose its camera view during assembly inspection by observing a smart‑glasses assistant that answers part queries and guides the user. It uses techniques such as Presence‑Invariant TwinSwap for object evidence calibration, claim‑indexed supervision to separate evidence needs from camera changes, and object‑centered calibration to adapt view preferences to robot poses. In experiments on gearbox assemblies and angle‑grinder recordings, INSPECT outperforms other non‑oracle policies, improving view utility and decision accuracy.
