Feature tracking for underwater navigation using sonar
TL;DR: This work proposes a solution to the sonar problem that is analogous to the successful inverse depth feature parameterization for vision tracking, introduced by [1], and shows that the parameterization leads to greater consistency in the feature location estimates.
Book ChapterDOI
A Feature Based Navigation System for an Autonomous Underwater Robot
TL;DR: This is one of the first implementations of a practical application for simultaneous localization and mapping on an AUV, Besides being an application of real-time SLAM, the implemtation demonstrates a novel data fusion solution where data from 7 sources are fused at different time scales in 5 separate estimators.

TL;DR: The paper describes an ongoing effort to enable autonomous mobile robots to play soccer in unstructured, everyday environments, and believes that this capability would prove useful for outreach activities, in demonstrating robotics technology to primary and secondary school students, to motivate them to pursue careers in science and engineering.
