Target Tracking from Weak Acoustic Signals in an Underwater Environment Using a Deep Segmentation Network

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
In submarine warfare systems, passive SONAR is commonly used to detect enemy targets while concealing one’s own submarine. The bearing information of a target obtained from passive SONAR can be accumulated over time and visually represented as a two ...

Wake-Responsive AUV Guidance Assisted by Passive Sonar Measurements

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
To make an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) chase a moving target ship that generates wake, wake-responsive guidance can be used. This scenario is applicable to making an underwater torpedo pursue a moving target ship until hitting the target.

FLSea: Underwater Visual–Inertial and Stereovision Forward‐Looking Data Sets

open access: yesJournal 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 ...
