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

   Author : Julian Valdez; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : The progression of seaweed farming and cultivation to an industrial scale relies on automating its processes. Utilization of Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) can enable this process through their capacity to automate crop and structural inspections. READ MORE

4. 3. Evaluation of Velocity Obstacle Approaches for Groups of Agents Navigating Everyday Scenarios

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

   Author : Jessica Gorwat; Amanda Hallstedt; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : As recent years have seen an increase in use of robotics in both public and private spaces, evaluations to ensure safe and efficient navigation through common scenarios are needed. The same evaluations can improve simulations of human behaviour used in for example evacuation simulations. READ MORE

5. 4. Velocity Obstacle method adapted for Dynamic Window Approach

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

   Author : Florian Coissac; [2023]

   Abstract : This thesis project is part of an internship at Visual Behavior. The company aims at producing computer vision models for robotics, helping the machine to better understand the world through the camera eye. The image holds many features that deep learning models are able to extract: navigable area, depth inference and object detection. READ MORE

6. 5. Development of a real-time navigation and collisionavoidance system for an autonomous naval rover : A Contribution to the Environmental Initiative for Flexible andReal-time Water Monitoring of the CatFish team

   University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för informationsteknologi

   Author : Esmee Tackx; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : This thesis explores the design and optimisation of a sensor system for real-time position determination of the Fish component in the CatFish naval drone and the development of a sonar sensor system for accurate object localisation and safe navigation in dynamic and uncertain underwater conditions. Through comprehensive experimentation and analysis, this thesis demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed sensor system and sonar sensing system in enhancing underwater navigation and obstacle avoidance capabilities.
