BALTIC: A Benchmark and Cross-Domain Strategy for 3D Reconstruction Across Air and Underwater Domains Under Varying Illumination
Michele Grimaldi, David Nakath, Oscar Pizarro +3
Robust 3D reconstruction across varying environmental conditions remains a critical challenge for robotic perception, particularly when transitioning between air and water. To addr…
Towards reliable subsea object recovery: a simulation study of an auv with a suction-actuated end effector
Michele Grimaldi, Yosaku Maeda, Hitoshi Kakami +3
Autonomous object recovery in the hadal zone is challenging due to extreme hydrostatic pressure, limited visibility and currents, and the need for precise manipulation at full ocea…
InsSo3D: Inertial Navigation System and 3D Sonar SLAM for turbid environment inspection
Simon Archieri, Ahmet Cinar, Shu Pan +4
This paper presents InsSo3D, an accurate and efficient method for large-scale 3D Simultaneous Localisation and Mapping (SLAM) using a 3D Sonar and an Inertial Navigation System (IN…
VISO: Robust Underwater Visual-Inertial-Sonar SLAM with Photometric Rendering for Dense 3D Reconstruction
Shu Pan, Simon Archieri, Ahmet Cinar +3
Visual challenges in underwater environments significantly hinder the accuracy of vision-based localisation and the high-fidelity dense reconstruction. In this paper, we propose VI…
