An autonomous vehicle for surface filling

Proceedings of the Intelligent Vehicles '95. Symposium, 2002
An autonomous mobile robot capable of exploring and navigating through an unknown, partially clustered closed indoor environment is presented. The robot's intelligence and autonomy are demonstrated by its capability of exploring and navigating the entire accessible area. A high level of performance has been reached at low hardware requirements. We have

Roboat: An Autonomous Surface Vehicle for Urban Waterways

2019 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS), 2019
Unmanned surface vehicles (USVs) are typically designed for open area marine applications. In this paper, we present a new autonomy system (Roboat) for urban waterways which requires robust localization, perception, planning, and control. A novel localization system, based on the extended Kalman filter (EKF), is proposed for USVs, which utilizes LiDAR,

Autonomous Sea Surface Vehicles

2016
Capitalizing on the experience and technology developments gained with underwater autonomous vehicles, the current research frontier in the field of autonomous marine vehicles has moved from under water to the sea surface, i. e., autonomous sea surface vehicles. Current and future perspectives of these types of autonomous vehicles are given in Sect. 13.

Development of an autonomous surface vehicle for monitoring underwater vehicles

OCEANS 2015 - MTS/IEEE Washington, 2015
JAMSTEC has developed and operated several AUVs (Autonomous Underwater Vehicle) as platform for scientific investigation and explorations of seabed mineral resources [1–4]. Conventionally, a support vessel monitors only one AUV during its whole dive for safety and positioning.

Seagle 3.0 An Autonomous Surface vehicle

2012 Proceedings of IEEE Southeastcon, 2012
The AUVSI Autonomous Surface vehicle event is a student-based competition where teams design, build and compete with fully autonomous surface vessel. These vehicles are required to preform many different tasks that vary from competition to competition but the ability to navigate channels marked by red and green markers and perform GPS based navigation ...

Development of prototype autonomous surface vehicle

2016 Techno-Ocean (Techno-Ocean), 2016
JAMSTEC has operated autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) for scientific survey of seabed mineral resources. Conventionally, the number of AUVs the support vessel can track is limited to one during operations. However, it takes a long time for one AUV to survey a large target area.

Design of an autonomous surface vehicle (ASV)

Proceedings of OCEANS'94, 2002
Although work in ROV (remotely operated vehicles) and AUV (autonomous underwater vehicles) has already led to the development of many vehicles, no surface robots have been designed. The Port of Bordeaux Authority in collaboration with the University of Bordeaux has undertaken the development of such an autonomous surface vehicle.

Test and Evaluation of Autonomous Surface Vehicles: A Case Study

2020 IEEE/ION Position, Location and Navigation Symposium (PLANS), 2020
The rigorous test and evaluation of autonomous systems is often a challenging process. Specifically, the transformation of qualitative assessments often used in the development phase to unbiased quantitative assessment can be difficult. Additionally, few standardized metrics exist for the test and evaluation of autonomous systems, as applications ...
