Navigation Method for Underwater Vehicles Based on Mutual Acoustical Positioning With a Single Seafloor Station
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a novel navigation method for underwater vehicles based on a single seafloor station (SS), with which the vehicles can estimate their positions and orientations with respect to the SS without the need of expensive inertial navigation system or time-consuming calibration.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
AUV "TUNA-SAND" and its Exploration of hydrothermal vents at Kagoshima Bay
Takeshi Nakatani,Tamaki Ura,Yuzuru Ito,Junichi Kojima,Kenkichi Tamura,Takashi Sakamaki,Y. Nose +6 more
TL;DR: TUNA-SAND as discussed by the authors is a hovering type AUV constructed in March 2007 as a platform for visual investigation of seafloor features and exploration of the hydrothermal vent in Kagoshima Bay, Japan carried out on August 2007.
Journal ArticleDOI
Application of A* algorithm for real-time path re-planning of an unmanned surface vehicle avoiding underwater obstacles
TL;DR: In this paper, a path re-planning technique and underwater obstacle avoidance for UAVs based on multi-beam forward looking sonar (FLS) was proposed. But the performance of the proposed method was verified through simulations, and sea experiments.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Docking method for hovering type AUVs by acoustic and visual positioning
TL;DR: In this article, a docking method for hovering type AUVs based on both the acoustic and visual positioning is proposed, and the proposed method was implemented in the AUV Tri-TON and a trial station in order to verify its performance through tank experiments.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Relative navigation of an autonomous underwater vehicle using a light-section profiling system
TL;DR: A method to trace the structure's surface using a light-section profiling system that determines the continuous shape of the target objects over a wide area by the light sectioning method and enables three-dimensional mapping of traced structures and the seabed.
