Design and Testing of a Minimal Configuration Underwater Micro‐Glider: Automating Lake and Reservoir Monitoring

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Uncrewed underwater vehicles (UUVs) have transformed oceanographic research through autonomous data gathering. Similarly, lake and other aquatic research can potentially be automated and transformed. However, UUVs would need to be smaller, lighter, less complex, and cheaper than currently available to make them more practical and user‐friendly

A navigation and inspection system for underwater survey vehicles

open access: yes, 1994
A navigation and inspection system for underwater survey vehicles is presented. The system is composed by two subsystems that, in particular, take care of the navigation task and of the inspection task.

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 ...

Geometric bounding techniques for underwater localisation using range-only sensors

open access: yes
This paper describes the application of geometric bounding techniques to range-only navigation of an underwater vehicle. A geometric technique is defined to obtain a position fix of an underwater vehicle using a combination of dead-reckoning navigation ...

Dumpsite Seabed Characterization of the San Pedro Basin, CA, From Autonomous Vehicle Observations

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A wide‐area seabed survey was conducted using autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) in a known dumpsite off the coast of Southern California that has been found to have widespread sediment contamination from the chemical dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT).

Biomimetic robots driven by smart materials: Motion forms, stimulation methods and applications

open access: yesResponsive Materials, EarlyView.
Biomimetic robots enhance adaptability by mimicking biological systems, but rigid materials limit performance. Smart materials with stimuli responsiveness and shape adaptability enable more flexible actuation and improved environmental interaction.
