On controlling aircraft and underwater vehicles
IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation, 2004. Proceedings. ICRA '04. 2004, 2004In this paper we make the important observation that the attitude and angular velocity control systems for gas-jet aircraft and underwater vehicles are of a special form: they are affine control systems with constant control distributions and multi-affine drifts.

Underwater floor pattern matching with an unmanned underwater vehicle
2015 12th International Conference on Ubiquitous Robots and Ambient Intelligence (URAI), 2015The localization of unmanned underwater vehicle (UUV) is important for the UUV to inspect or manipulator objects. We assume that there is an UUV with a camera sensor and the UUV uses the underwater floor pattern for localization. Because the pattern is known beforehand, the pattern matching between the pattern image and the camera image lets the UUV ...

Autonomous underwater vehicles localisation in mobile underwater networks
International Journal of Sensor Networks, 2017Autonomous underwater vehicles AUVs form mobile underwater networks to conduct underwater surveying missions cooperatively. Due to the severe turbulence caused by water currents, individual AUV has to adjust its heading constantly to ensure reaching destination.

On Underwater Vehicle Routing Problem
2015In the paper we consider a problem of underwater vehicle routing (also called path planning) which can be described as follows: Given positions under water have to be inspected by the mobile robot taking under consideration water currents, minimizing the total time of the inspection.

Control of underwater robotic vehicles
Proceedings of 1993 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS '93), 2002Underwater robotic vehicles have been very attractive for scientific survey, construction, and maintenance in hazardous environment such as ocean and nuclear plant. The development of advanced vehicle technologies is accelerated by the demand for an underwater robotic vehicle with high performance and efficient operation in terms of time and cost. Most

An optimal indirect control of underwater vehicle
International Journal of Control, 2019This paper considers a new problem of control related to underwater vehicles. Due to the presence of a free fluid surface and to the vortex shedding of the vehicle lifting surfaces, the mathematical model is represented by an integral-differential equation.

From autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) to supervised underwater vehicles (SUVs)
Oceans '97. MTS/IEEE Conference Proceedings, 2002The past fifteen years have seen the development of a new family of unmanned underwater vehicles without umbilical. Initially, those vehicles were operated in the direct vicinity of the mother-ship. With the increase in range and reliability, users are now willing to operate without support vessels.

A Vision System for an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle
[1992] Proceedings. 11th IAPR International Conference on Pattern Recognition, 1996A vision system for the PISCIS project is described. This is a proposed project for the use of an untethered autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) for pipeline inspection. The vision system is termed PVS (PISCIS vision system). It will assist the AUV in finding and following the pipeline.
