Swimm3R: Splatting with Medium-aware SfM for Underwater 3D Reconstruction
Minseong Kweon, Junaed Sattar
We propose Swimm3R, a unified framework that combines medium-aware structure-from-motion (SfM) with Underwater Beta Splatting to address scattering- and attenuation-induced failure…
Semantically-Aware Diver Activity Recognition Framework for Effective Underwater Multi-Human-Robot Collaboration
Sadman Sakib Enan, Junaed Sattar
Effective multi-human-robot collaboration is essential for expanding human-led operations in the challenging and high-risk underwater environment. For autonomous underwater vehicle…
AMP2026: A Multi-Platform Marine Robotics Dataset for Tracking and Mapping
Edwin Meriaux, Shuo Wen, David Widhalm +11
Marine environments present significant challenges for perception and autonomy due to dynamic surfaces, limited visibility, and complex interactions between aerial, surface, and su…
Robotic Classification of Divers' Swimming States using Visual Pose Keypoints as IMUs
Demetrious T. Kutzke, Ying-Kun Wu, Elizabeth Terveen +1
Traditional human activity recognition uses either direct image analysis or data from wearable inertial measurement units (IMUs), but can be ineffective in challenging underwater e…
Design and Development of the MeCO Open-Source Autonomous Underwater Vehicle
David Widhalm, Cory Ohnsted, Corey Knutson +6
We present MeCO, the Medium Cost Open-source autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV), a versatile autonomous vehicle designed to support research and development in underwater human-ro…
A Diver Attention Estimation Framework for Effective Underwater Human-Robot Interaction
Sadman Sakib Enan, Junaed Sattar
Many underwater tasks, such as cable-and-wreckage inspection and search-and-rescue, can benefit from robust Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) capabilities. With the recent advancements…
