Space‐Aware Adaptive Trajectory Planning for High Coverage Inspection of Underwater Long‐Range Tunnels

IET Cyber-Systems and Robotics, Volume 8, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
ABSTRACT The inspection of long‐range tunnels has become an important challenge in underwater robotics, as it involves a trade‐off among coverage, efficiency, and an energy‐related cost metric. In this paper, we propose a space‐aware trajectory planning algorithm to generate high‐coverage inspection trajectories for long‐range tunnel inspection.
