Cooperation among heterogeneous marine vehicles can offer several benefits to underwater applications, such as supporting the navigation of submerged robots by leveraging the information available to a surface vehicle. Within such context, this paper describes…
Periodical inspections are a fundamental operation to monitor the status of underwater structures and to assess their need for proper maintenance or repair interventions. Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) could represent a viable option to carry…
This paper proposes an evaluation of the impact of the 2D feature correspondence stage on an underwater vision-based navigation solution using a monocular Visual Odometry (VO) algorithm for linear velocity estimation. In particular, this work…
Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) employed for inspection and monitoring applications require a reliable estimate of their navigation status to successfully accomplish the scheduled mission. Considering that they are typically endowed with vision systems to collect…
Oceans preservation and protection have become increasingly relevant topics to tackle climate change. To this end, Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) provide a useful means to carry out inspection and monitoring operations in full autonomy. A…
