Perception of the environment is an essential skill for robotic applications that interact with their surroundings. Alongside perception often comes the ability to recognize objects, people, or dynamic situations. This skill is of paramount importance in many use cases, from industrial to social robotics. Robots that can accurately perceive and understand their environment are critical for tasks like manufacturing, delivery, healthcare, and assisting humans in homes or public spaces. Object recognition enables robots to identify items, tools, and obstacles in their vicinity. This allows industrial robots to select the right parts or manipulators, logistics robots to handle packages, and autonomous vehicles to avoid collisions. Activity recognition allows robots to interpret human motions and behavior. This facilitates safe and intuitive collaboration in shared workspaces. It also permits service robots to determine user intents and respond appropriately. Person recognition provides robots the means to identify individuals. This capability supports applications like personalized assistance, healthcare monitoring, and security surveillance. Altogether, these skills comprise the fundamental building blocks for robots to operate adaptively in the real world.
This Special Issue “Recognition Robotics” of Sensors seeks to explore new research proposals on this increasingly important topic.
