POIL transfers demonstrations by matching task-relevant object-part points across scenes and tracking them during execution. This shared representation corrects object motion through a rigid-body twist instead of replaying gripper actions. In controlled Mug Insertion trials with ground-truth point trajectories, one demonstration achieved 100% success from Far poses, versus 84% for Point Policy with 50 demonstrations. The guarantee covers terminal control under rigid-object assumptions, not full-pipeline performance.
