CoRR, 2023 The oceans in the Earth's in one of the last border lines on the World, with only a fraction of their depths having been explored. Advancements in technology have led to the development of Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) that can operate independently and perform complex tasks underwater. These vehicles have revolutionized underwater exploration,

FLSea: Underwater Visual–Inertial and Stereovision Forward‐Looking Data Sets
Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Visibility underwater is challenging and degrades as the distance between the subject and the camera increases. That is why forward‐looking underwater computer vision tasks are difficult. We have collected underwater forward‐looking stereovision and visual–inertial image sets using two underwater imaging platforms, a stereo camera rig, and an ...

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.

Eliciting expert judgement for the probability of AUV loss in contrasting operational environments [PDF]
, 2007 Each time an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) is used in the sea there is a non-zero probability of loss. Quantifying probability of loss is not an exact science; therefore much depends on the fault history of the vehicle, the operational environment ...

International Journal of Advanced Robotic SystemsThis paper proposes an approach method that enables an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) to accurately approach an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-deployed station in the final stage of a mission. AUVs are increasingly used as fully autonomous underwater
