Abstract
Robotic object recognition is a fundamental capability that enables autonomous robots to interact intelligently with dynamic environments. Traditional vision-based methods, such as SIFT, SURF, HOG, and template matching, perform well under controlled conditions but struggle with variations in lighting, viewpoint, occlusion, and complex backgrounds. Recent advances in deep learning have significantly improved recognition accuracy by automatically learning features from raw image data. However, individual deep learning models often face challenges related to computational cost, inference speed, and limited generalization. This paper proposes a Hybrid Deep Learning Framework that integrates Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), Vision Transformers (ViTs), attention mechanisms, and multimodal sensor fusion (RGB, depth, and LiDAR) to enhance recognition accuracy and efficiency. The framework combines local and global feature extraction, adaptive feature fusion, intelligent object recognition, and robotic decision-making for real-time perception and task execution. It supports applications in industrial automation, warehouse logistics, autonomous mobile robots, healthcare, agriculture, and service robotics while improving robustness, scalability, and computational efficiency.
