OfficeTwin: Realizing 3D Reconstruction of Redundant Scenes through Partial Viewpoint Perception

Quanyun Wu, Kyle Gao, Daisy Li, Kshitij Goyal, Dayou Mao +3

Feed-forward 3D reconstruction turns an uncalibrated monocular stream into a dense point cloud in a single inference pass, orders of magnitude faster than classical structure-from-motion (e.g., COLMAP), and reliable on the weakly textured, repetitive surfaces where keypoint matching fails outright. However, raw point clouds lack the object identity, physical properties, and watertight volume required for robot learning. This gap widens under robot-native capture. A camera mounted on a robot constrained to a few degrees of freedom sees each object only partially, and the repetitive, weakly textured structure of an office makes distinct workstations nearly indistinguishable, leaving redundant and partial observations that downstream reconstruction cannot resolve. Existing image-to-3D generation methods struggle with these conditions, hallucinating geometry under incomplete views and confusing repeated instances. We present OfficeTwin, a robot-native framework that converts these incomplete observations into simulation-ready digital twins. OfficeTwin first imposes metric and structural constraints, then exploits the office's structural redundancy by registering repeated cubicles…
