We present Register Anything Model (RAM), a unified model for generalizable 3D point cloud registration that robustly estimates 6-DoF transformations across diverse domains spanning sensors and environments. Existing registration methods are typically tailored to a single domain, with carefully tuned architectures and hyperparameters, and thus degrade markedly when applied to novel domains. We bridge this gap by training a single model on diverse data from indoor, outdoor, and object domains. A central challenge is the severe geometric discrepancy across domains, i.e., differences in scene scale, sensor noise, point density, and structural patterns, which hinders processing with a unified point-based model. To address this, we introduce a geometry-aware normalization strategy that jointly voxelizes and normalizes point clouds into a standardized geometric space, adaptively based on their geometric properties to preserve salient local structures while standardizing resolution. Built on this normalization, RAM follows a hierarchical coarse-to-fine paradigm, and employs an efficient geometric transformer that models local geometric consistency instead of globally over all points.…
