Self‐Service and Home Delivery Combined: Coordinating the Route of a Mobile Parcel Locker With the Delivery Tasks of Its Human Driver

Networks, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In response to the increasing volume of parcels, last‐mile delivery innovations are exploring the integration of multiple delivery modes. The most prominent examples are delivery vans that, next to being the base for the delivery tasks of their human drivers, also function as mobile launching platforms for drones or autonomous delivery robots.

Linear System Identification and Control of a Low‐Cost High‐Performance Omnidirectional Marine Surface Vehicle for Swarming Applications

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Marine operations traditionally rely on human intervention, a costly and disruptive method. Autonomous surface vehicles (ASVs) offer a powerful alternative, capable of operating autonomously, for extended periods, and with various sensors for various missions.

Design and Testing of a Minimal Configuration Underwater Micro‐Glider: Automating Lake and Reservoir Monitoring

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Uncrewed underwater vehicles (UUVs) have transformed oceanographic research through autonomous data gathering. Similarly, lake and other aquatic research can potentially be automated and transformed. However, UUVs would need to be smaller, lighter, less complex, and cheaper than currently available to make them more practical and user‐friendly

Formation Control With Obstacle Avoidance of Underwater Swarms Based on Relative Visual Feedback

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Underwater multi‐robot and swarm systems require advanced methodologies for controlling collective behavior. Conventional single‐robot techniques, such as tethering, sonar imaging, and acoustic localization, are not scalable or effective for swarm applications.

Dumpsite Seabed Characterization of the San Pedro Basin, CA, From Autonomous Vehicle Observations

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A wide‐area seabed survey was conducted using autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) in a known dumpsite off the coast of Southern California that has been found to have widespread sediment contamination from the chemical dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT).
