There are some resources on the web that are in their infant stages of image recognition, and hopefully one day we will be able to submit a design, and get results back that show if anything has been created very similar to what we have done. But until that day, it is each designer’s responsibility to do reasonable, proper research, and investigation to avoid plagiarizing another’s logo.
