Using Monocular Vision and Human Body Priors for AUVs to Autonomously Approach Divers
Michael Fulton, Jungseok Hong, Junaed Sattar
Direct communication between humans and autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) is a relatively underexplored area in human-robot interaction (HRI) research, although many tasks (\eg…
Design and Experiments with LoCO AUV: A Low Cost Open-Source Autonomous Underwater Vehicle
Chelsey Edge, Sadman Sakib Enan, Michael Fulton +8
In this paper we present LoCO AUV, a Low-Cost, Open Autonomous Underwater Vehicle. LoCO is a general-purpose, single-person-deployable, vision-guided AUV, rated to a depth of 100 m…
By Land, Air, or Sea: Multi-Domain Robot Communication Via Motion
Michael Fulton, Mustaf Ahmed, Junaed Sattar
In this paper, we explore the use of motion for robot-to-human communication on three robotic platforms: the 5 degrees-of-freedom (DOF) Aqua autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV), a…
Robot Communication Via Motion: Closing the Underwater Human-Robot Interaction Loop
Michael Fulton, Chelsey Edge, Junaed Sattar
In this paper, we propose a novel method for underwater robot-to-human communication using the motion of the robot as "body language". To evaluate this system, we develop simulated…
Towards a Generic Diver-Following Algorithm: Balancing Robustness and Efficiency in Deep Visual Detection
Md Jahidul Islam, Michael Fulton, Junaed Sattar
This paper explores the design and development of a class of robust diver-following algorithms for autonomous underwater robots. By considering the operational challenges for under…
An Evaluation of Bayesian Methods for Bathymetry-based Localization of Autonomous Underwater Robots
Jungseok Hong, Michael Fulton, Junaed Sattar
This paper presents an evaluation of a number of probabilistic algorithms for localization of autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) using bathymetry data. The algorithms, based on…
