An object detection system may include an imager configured to generate image data indicative of an environment in which a machine is present, and a sensor configured to generate sensor data indicative of the environment in which the machine is present. The object detection system may further include an object detection controller including one or more object detection processors configured to receive an image signal indicative of the image data, identify an object associated with the image data, and determine a first location of the object relative to the position of the imager. The one or more object detection processors may also be configured to receive a sensor signal indicative of the sensor data, and determine, based at least in part on the sensor signal, the presence or absence of the object at the first location.
