Abstract
This review paper offers a thorough assessment of three-dimensional object recognition methods, an essential element in the perception frameworks of autonomous systems. This analysis emphasises the integration of LiDAR and camera sensors, providing a distinctive contrast with more economical alternatives like camera-only or camera-Radar combinations. This study objectively evaluates performance and practical implementation issues, such as cost and operational efficiency, thereby elucidating the limitations of existing systems and proposing avenues for further research. The insights provided render it a significant asset for enhancing 3D object recognition and autonomy in intelligent systems.
