Proceedings ArticleDOI
Autonomous bathymetry for risk assessment with ROAZ robotic surface vehicle
Hugo Ferreira,Carlos Almeida,Alfredo Martins,José Almeida,Nuno Dias,André Dias,Eduardo Silva +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the use of robotic systems for risk assessment is validated through several missions performed either in river scenario (in very shallow water conditions) and in marine coastlines, where the ROAZ is an ocean capable catamaran.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Radar based collision detection developments on USV ROAZ II
Carlos Almeida,Tiago Franco,Hugo Ferreira,Alfredo Martins,Ricardo Santos,José Almeida,João Carvalho,Eduardo Silva +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the integration of obstacle detection and analysis capabilities in a coherent and advanced C&C framework allowing mixed-mode control in unmanned surface systems, and the collision avoidance work has been successfully integrated in an operational autonomous surface vehicle and demonstrated in real operational conditions.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Autonomous Surface Vehicle Docking Manoeuvre with Visual Information
Alfredo Martins,José Almeida,Hugo Ferreira,Hugo Silva,Nuno Dias,André Dias,Carlos Almeida,Eduardo Silva +7 more
TL;DR: The system implemented in the autonomous surface vehicle ROAZ, developed by LSA-ISEP to perform missions in river environment, test autonomous AUV docking capabilities and multiple AUV/ASV coordinated missions is presented.
ROAZ Autonomous Surface Vehicle Design and Implementation
TL;DR: The design of an Autonomous Surface Vehicle for operation in river and estuarine scenarios and some preliminary test results concerning a custom developed thruster are presented along with hydrodynamic drag calculations by the use of computer fluid dynamic methods.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Manoeuvre based mission control system for Autonomous Surface Vehicle
Nuno Dias,Carlos Almeida,Hugo Ferreira,José Almeida,Alfredo Martins,André Dias,Eduardo Silva +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the mission control and supervision system developed for the ROAZ Autonomous Surface Vehicle (ASV) has been presented, which is used for autonomous vehicle deployment on the ground.
