Robotic systems capable of aquatic movement has increased exploitation in recent years
due to the diverse range of missions that can be performed in otherwise hostile …

Aquatic robotics is making a critical transition to adapt and inspire more efficient systems
from nature. The result is the abandonment of inefficient propeller-based locomotion for a …

This paper presents a multi‐autonomous underwater vehicle system capable of
cooperatively and autonomously tracking and following marine targets (ie, fish) tagged with …

Currently, individual animal movement data can be obtained using a variety of methods, but
each methodology is limited in either temporal or spatial resolution. A new method of active …

This paper presents a multi-AUV state-estimator that can determine the 3D position of a
tagged fish. In addition to angle measurements, the state-estimator also incorporates …

Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) have demonstrated superior performance for
tracking marine animals tagged with individually coded acoustic transmitters. However …

This paper presents a graph-based model of periodic migrations of tagged fish populations
and two multi-AUV stochastic controllers developed to track these fish from the model. The …

This study develops an electro-mechanical model for an undulating biomimetic underwater
robot propelled by ionic polymer metal composite (IPMC). The structure of IPMC is …

With the growing popularity of flying drone technologies, much effort has been put toward
optimizing design parameters for various flight missions. Traditional flying as well as …

Drones are making a critical transition to develop and advance more complex environments.
Aquatic environments present many challenges for current robotic systems which primarily …
