A Sonar-Visual Dataset for Cross-Modal Underwater Robot Perception
Weitung Chen, Phil Tinn, Per Gunnar Auran +2
Underwater robots typically use both cameras and sonar for perception to leverage the rich semantic details of vision and the robust range measurements of acoustics. However, learn…
Docking and Persistent Operations for a Resident Underwater Vehicle
Leonard Günzel, GabrielÄ KasparaviÄiÅ«tÄ, Ambjørn Grimsrud Waldum +6
Our understanding of the oceans remains limited by sparse and infrequent observations, primarily because current methods are constrained by the high cost and logistical effort of u…
Uncertainty Aware Mapping for Vision-Based Underwater Robots
Abhimanyu Bhowmik, Mohit Singh, Madhushree Sannigrahi +2
Vision-based underwater robots can be useful in inspecting and exploring confined spaces where traditional sensors and preplanned paths cannot be followed. Sensor noise and situati…
Enhancing Situational Awareness in Underwater Robotics with Multi-modal Spatial Perception
Pushyami Kaveti, Ambjorn Grimsrud Waldum, Hanumant Singh +1
Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) and Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs) demand robust spatial perception capabilities, including Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM), t…
