COLREGs-Informed RRT* for Collision Avoidance of Marine Crafts [PDF]
2021 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA), 2021 The paper proposes novel sampling strategies to compute the optimal path alteration of a surface vessel sailing in close quarters. Such strategy directly encodes the rules for safe navigation at sea, by exploiting the concept of minimal ship domain to determine the compliant region where the path deviation is to be generated.

VORRT-COLREGs: A Hybrid Velocity Obstacles and RRT Based COLREGs-Compliant Path Planner for Autonomous Surface Vessels [PDF]
OCEANS 2021: San Diego – Porto, 2021 This paper presents VORRT-COLREGs, a hybrid technique that combines velocity obstacles (VO) and rapidly-exploring random trees (RRT) to generate safe trajectories for autonomous surface vessels (ASVs) while following nautical rules of the road. RRT generates a set of way points and the velocity obstacles method ensures safe travel between way points ...

Collision avoidance planning for unmanned surface vehicle based on eccentric expansion
International Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems, 2019 The International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea (COLREGS) specify certain navigation rules for ships at risk for collision. Theoretically, the safety of unmanned surface vehicles and traffic boats would be guaranteed when they comply with ...

The Obligations of Single-Propeller Vessels at the Head-On Situation [PDF]
TransNav, 2016 Manoeuvring characteristics of the vessels at the head-on situation are examined in this study. The meetings between the power-driven vessels are considered based on their propellers. These vessels can either have a single propeller or double propellers.

Graphical Tools to Facilitate the Selection of Manoeuvres to Avoid Collision [PDF]
TransNav, 2023 Graphical tools have been proposed to facilitate the selection, evaluation, and correction of anti-collision actions in situations with moving and stationary obstacles, assuming that such situations are not extreme or ordinary with sailing vessels and ...
