Resource constrained cooperative underwater localization & mapping
Abstract
This project will develop, implement, and evaluate algorithms for robust, efficient, resource-constrained mapping and localization of targets on the seabed, using cooperating marine vehicles with acoustic modems and sonar sensors. Our efforts in the coming 3 years will focus on efficient and robust algorithm development and experimental demonstration in the following two areas: (1) Communication-constrained cooperative underwater mapping and localization and (2) Underwater feature detection and distributed feature association. In conjunction with the work in these areas, we will continue our efforts in developing software and performing experiments.
