Abstract: ABSTRACT: Title: A System and Method for Tokenless Laundry Bag Identity Generation, Localization, Verification and Recovery The present disclosure proposes a system (100) and method for tokenless laundry bag identity generation, autonomous rack localization, collection verification, and misplaced laundry bag recovery in large-scale laundry environments. The system (100) comprises a computing device (102), at least one processor (104), a memory (106), and plurality of modules (116) executed by the at least one processor (104). The system (100) acquires visual and physical characteristics of a laundry bag, generates a Laundry Identity Profile from numerical feature vectors, and localizes the laundry bag on storage racks through rack image data and similarity matching. The system (100) verifies a retrieved laundry bag using a feature similarity score, a weight similarity score, and a confidence score. Upon verification failure or absence from a determined rack location, the system (100) performs rack-wide scanning, identifies a matching laundry bag, and updates corrected rack-location information independently of physical identifiers.
