Technical benefits and cultural barriers of networked Autonomous Undersea Vehicles [PDF]
, 2013 The research presented in this thesis examines the technical benefits to using a collaborative network of Autonomous Undersea Vehicles (AUVs) in place of individual vehicles. Benefits could be achieved in the areas of reduced power consumption, improved positional information and improved acoustic communication bandwidth.

A Biorobotic Pectoral Fin for Autonomous Undersea Vehicles
2006 International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 2006A biorobotic fin for autonomous undersea vehicles (AUVs) was developed based on studies of the anatomy, kinematics, and hydrodynamics of the bluegill sunfish pectoral fin. The biorobotic fin was able to produce many of the complex fin motions used by the sunfish during steady swimming and was used to investigate mechanisms of thrust production and ...

A precision navigation system for autonomous undersea vehicles
Proceedings of Symposium on Autonomous Underwater Vehicle Technology, 2002Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institution, Inc. (HBOI) and Kearfott Guidance and Navigation (KGN) Corporation have teamed to develop a low-cost inertial navigation system for autonomous undersea vehicles. The navigation system will be ideally suited for mine countermeasures missions as well as other scientific and commercial missions.

Planning and world modeling for autonomous undersea vehicles
Proceedings IEEE International Symposium on Intelligent Control 1988, 2003The planning and world modeling components of the MAUV (multiple autonomous undersea vehicles) architecture are described, with a focus on requirements for navigation of the MAUV vehicles. The goal of the MAUV project is to have multiple undersea vehicles exhibiting intelligent, autonomous, cooperative behavior.

The AUSI/IMTP solar powered autonomous undersea vehicle
IEEE Oceanic Engineering Society. OCEANS'98. Conference Proceedings (Cat. No.98CH36259), 2002If we are to understand the impact of the world's oceans on our environment, we must gather data with which to understand that impact. Low cost, unmanned, long endurance mobile sampling systems are, in many cases, a desirable alternative to the currently used, oceanographic research vessels requiring large investments in manpower and equipment, or by ...

Signal Processing and Data Fusion for Autonomous Undersea Vehicles
Proceedings of the 6th International Symposium on Unmanned Untethered Submersible Technology,, 2005The strategic and tactical applications for autonomous submersibles place great demands on the platforms' passive sonar signal and data processing abilities. It is necessary to overcome the limited acoustic aperture and lack of human supervision by exploiting synergism between front-end signal processing functions and back-end data fusion algorithms ...

Uncrewed undersea vehicle embedded autonomous target recognition in synthetic aperture sonar imagery
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2023The opacity of the ocean to electromagnetic signals makes communication with Uncrewed Undersea Vehicles (UUVs) extremely difficult, especially for situations where the vehicle is operating far from its center of command and control, and makes mid-operation data exfiltration for external processing untenable.

Development and Testing of a Dexterous Manipulation Capability for Autonomous Undersea Vehicles
AIAA Infotech@Aerospace Conference, 2009SAMURAI is an electrically-driven robotic manipulator designed for autonomous sampling and recovery of specimens from the sea floor while mounted to an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV). Autonomous operation is enabled through the use of the autonomous vision system (AVATAR), which employs a pair of IEEE-1394 cameras in deep ocean housings to locate ...

Abstract This paper presents the development of an Autonomous Undersea Vehicle (AUV) that is capable of an acoustically stealth delivery of a payload. The payload is composed of a black box noise maker and the goal of this “stealth mission” is to minimize the amplitude of the acoustic signal emitting from the noise maker ...
