Abstract

EN Convolutional neural networks (CNNs), a type of artificial neural network (ANN) in the deep learning (DL) domain, have gained popularity in several computer vision applications and are attracting research in other fields, including robotic perception. CNNs are developed to autonomously and effectively acquire spatial patterns of characteristics using backpropagation, leveraging an array of elements, including convolutional layers, pooling layers, and fully connected layers. Current reviews predominantly emphasize CNNs’ applications in various contexts, neglecting a comprehensive perspective on CNNs and failing to address certain recently presented new ideas, including robotic perception. This review paper presents an overview of the fundamental principles of CNNs and their applications in diverse computer vision tasks for robotic perception while addressing the corresponding challenges and future prospects for the domain of computer vision in improved robotic perception. This paper addresses the history, basic concepts, working principles, applications, and the most important components of CNNs. Understanding the concepts, benefits, and constraints associated with CNNs is crucial for exploiting their possibilities in robotic perception, with the aim of enhancing robotic performance and intelligence.
