1. 1. Robust light source detection for AUV docking

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

   Author : Joar Edlund; [2023]
   Keywords : Autonomous Underwater Vehicle; Docking; Detection; Poseestimation; Visual Navigation; Autonoma Undervattensfordon; Dockning; Detektering; Positionsestimering; Visuell Navigation;

   Abstract : For Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) to be able to conduct longterm surveys, the ability to return to a docking station for maintenance and recharging is crucial. A dynamic docking system where a slowly moving submarine acts as the docking station provides increased hydrodynamic control and reduces the impact of environmental disturbances. READ MORE

   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

5. 4. Robustness of State-of-the-Art Visual Odometry and SLAM Systems

   University essay from KTH/Tillämpad fysik

   Author : Cassandra Mannila; [2023]
   Keywords : Visual-Inertial Odometry; Visual Odometry; SLAM; Motion blur; ORB-SLAM3; DM-VIO; Robustness;

   Abstract : Visual(-Inertial) Odometry (VIO) and Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) are hot topics in Computer Vision today. These technologies have various applications, including robotics, autonomous driving, and virtual reality. They may also be valuable in studying human behavior and navigation through head-mounted visual systems. READ MORE

6. 5. The development of a Hardware-in-the-Loop test setup for event-based vision near-space space objects.

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Rymdteknik
