  4. 3. 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.
