The paper introduces a framework that uses world models to enable robotic insertion across diverse parts. By combining proprioceptive data with wrist‑mounted camera visuals, a single model is trained on up to 90 tasks, achieving 56% zero‑shot success on unseen objects versus 7% for a model‑free baseline. The approach scales with more training objects and can be fine‑tuned for improved data efficiency and performance.

Robotic assembly in high-mixture settings requires adaptable systems that can handle diverse parts, yet current approaches typically rely on policies specialized to each insertion task. Although this...
AnyBox is a zero‑shot framework that estimates the full 9DoF pose (6D pose plus 3D dimensions) of boxes from a single RGB‑D image, leveraging the geometric regularity of boxes. It alternates between pose and scale estimation, using a binary search guided by the discrepancy between a reprojected template and the observed mask, and employs a depth‑consistency filter and an early‑stopping rule to prune implausible hypotheses. On public benchmarks and a warehouse dataset, AnyBox improves detection AP by up to 36 points and boosts robotic box‑shelving success by 28%.
