Researchers have developed KinemaForge, a new pipeline for creating simulation-ready digital twins of articulated objects from RGB-D sensor data. This system jointly infers part geometry, joint topology, and kinematic parameters, addressing previous limitations where these aspects were handled separately. KinemaForge also incorporates an energy-consistent verifier to ensure the reconstructed models adhere to physical laws, reducing simulation drift and improving manipulation success rates compared to existing methods.
