Augmentron: Scalable Multi-View Visual Augmentation for Robot Learning
Augmentron: Scalable Multi-View Visual Augmentation for Robot Learning
This research introduces Augmentron, a geometry-aware pipeline that generates reusable scene representations and renders them through recorded camera poses to produce temporally and multi-view consistent environment variations while preserving robot, task objects, actions, and annotations. Replacing half of the real-world training dataset with Augmentron data improves model success across three physical manipulation tasks for both out-of-distribution distractor objects and workspace variation evaluations. In comparisons against alternate augmentation techniques, Augmentron achieves the highest pooled success in all three conditions, demonstrating that introducing augmented data to a training recipe helps policies generalize to dynamic real-world settings.
The paper proposes Augmentron, a geometry-aware pipeline for generating consistent multi-view visual augmentations to improve robot policy generalization on out-of-distribution distractors and workspace variations, with results reported across three physical manipulation tasks.

es model success across three tasks for both in out-of-distribution distractor objects, and out-of-distribution workspace variation evaluations. In a separate comparison against alternate augmentation techniques, Augmentron achieves the highest pooled success in all three conditions. The results show that introducing augmented data to a data training recipe can help policies generalize to dynamic real-world settings.

arXiv:2611.09145v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Robot policies trained on visually narrow demonstrations can become sensitive to environmental features that are unrelated to the task. Existing generative augmentation methods can introduce visual diversity, but processing every frame and camera view independently is computationally expensive and may produce inconsistent observations across cameras and timestamps.
