Recognition (2008)

The general problem of recognition from stereo processing, laser scanning, or ordinary image data provides basic environmental information for a robot to act autonomously. Results may be the identity and pose of known objects or object parts in possibly cluttered scenes, as well as grasp points or other generic affordances of objects from a known class.
