  1. 1. Experiments with Visual Odometry for Hydrobatic Autonomous Underwater Vehicles

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Somnath Balaji Suresh Kumar; [2023]
    Keywords : Hydrobatic AUVs; VO; Stonefish; ORB-SLAM2; VISO2; Hydrobatiska AUV:er; VO; Stonefish; ORB-SLAM2; VISO2;

    Abstract : Hydrobatic Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) are underactuated robots that can perform agile maneuvers in challenging underwater environments with high efficiency in speed and range. The challenge lies in localizing and navigating these AUVs particularly for performing manipulation tasks because common sensors such as GPS become very unreliable underwater due to their poor accuracy.

  2. 2. Monocular Visual Odometry for Autonomous Underwater Navigation : An analysis of learning-based monocular visual odometry approaches in underwater scenarios

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Andrea Caraffa; [2021]
    Keywords : Deep Learning; Monocular Visual Odometry; Computer Vision; Autonomous Underwater Navigation; Autonomous Underwater Vehicle; Djupinlärning; Monokulär Visuell Odometri; Datorseende; Autonom Undervattensnavigering; Autonomt Undervattensfordon;

    Abstract : Visual Odometry (VO) is the process of estimating the relative motion of a vehicle by using solely image data gathered from the camera. In underwater environments, VO becomes extremely challenging but valuable since ordinary sensors for on-road localization are usually unpractical in these hostile environments. READ MORE
