Indoor service robots often face challenges in target localization and robotic grasping under cluttered backgrounds, partial occlusion, and viewpoint variations. To address these issues, this study proposes a vision-guided robotic grasping framework based on an improved feature matching algorithm termed Mahalanobis-accelerated Scale-Invariant Feature Transform Plus (MSIFT+). The proposed method integrates Mahalanobis distance metric reconstruction with a dynamic Best-Bin-First (BBF) search strategy to improve matching robustness and computational efficiency. A multi-scenario indoor dataset was constructed to evaluate the proposed method under rotational variation, weak-texture, and partial occlusion conditions. The results demonstrate that the MSIFT+ algorithm significantly outperforms other methods in cross-scenario consistency and adaptability to weakly textured targets. Furthermore, a binocular vision-guided robotic grasping system was developed and validated through practical robotic experiments. Experimental results confirm that the MSIFT+ algorithm enhances detection performance for small and clustered targets in complex environments. The proposed framework provides an effective and reliable solution for robotic object localization and grasping in complex indoor environments.
