  1. Collision Avoidance Using a Low-Cost Forward-Looking Sonar for Small AUVs

    Morency, Christopher CharlesVirginia Tech2024

    … we consider the case of a small AUV using a forward-looking sonar system with a limited number of beams. We describe a high-fidelity sonar model and simulation environment that was developed to aid in the design of the sonar system. The simulator achieves real-time visualization through ray …

  2. Integrating a RESON 7131 forward looking sonar into the REMUS 2500 underwater autonomous vehicle

    Bruss, Robert EverettMassachusetts Institute of Technology2015

    … follows the process of integrating an advanced forward looking sonar (FLS) onto an existing UUV to increase object detection, avoidance, and classification capabilities. Conceptualization of the new vehicle hardware utilized computer-aided design to meet design requirements while maintaining all …

  3. Toward lifelong visual localization and mapping

    Johannsson, HordurMassachusetts Institute of Technology and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution2013

    … using two different sensor modalities: imaging sonars for underwater navigation and vision based SLAM for terrestrial applications. Underwater navigation is one application domain that benefits from SLAM, where access to a global positioning system (GPS) is not possible. In this thesis we …

  5. Sparse Bayesian information filters for localization and mapping

    Walter, Matthew R.Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution2008

    … Underwater Vehicle (AUV) equipped with a forward-looking sonar. The approach utilizes our filter to fuse measurements of vehicle attitude and motion from onboard sensors with data from sonar images of the hull. We employ the system to perform three-dimensional, 6-DOF SLAM on a ship hull.
