Abstract

This paper presents the TRICKY 2025 HouseCat6D Category-Level Object Pose Estimation Challenge, held in conjunction with the ICCV 2025 workshop on Transparent and Reflective Objects in the Wild. The challenge addresses the critical limitations of existing pose estimation systems when applied to non-Lambertian surfaces, such as glass and metal. Leveraging the HouseCat6D dataset comprising realistic home environments with a diverse range of transparent and specular objects, the challenge pushes state-of-the-art algorithms to estimate object pose, scale, and shape in photometrically complex scenes. Unlike traditional benchmarks focused on texture-rich, opaque objects, this challenge emphasizes robustness under reflective highlights, refractions, and partial transparency. By promoting research in these underexplored conditions, the challenge contributes toward generalizable and category-level object understanding in unconstrained real-world settings.
