The review discusses the possibilities of different driving mechanisms and sensors of
spherical robots, and a special kind of mobile robots is introduced and discussed. The …

Consider the case where autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) are deployed to monitor
a 3D underwater environment. This paper tackles the problem of guiding all AUVs to the …

Considering underwater environments, this paper tackles flocking of multiple swarm robots
utilizing one leader. The mission of swarm robots is to reach their goal while not colliding …

Aiming at the difficulty in locating and identifying the faults of oil-immersed transformers, a
new spherical submersible transformer inspection robot is designed. The robot has a …

This study addresses multi-robot distributed rendezvous controls in cluttered underwater
environments with many unknown obstacles. In underwater environments, a Unmanned …

Hovering type autonomous underwater vehicles (HAUV's) are quite remarkable due to their
unique capabilities and features. Appropriate maneuverability and controllability is the most …

Detecting and tracking social marine mammals, including dolphins, can help to explain their
social dynamics, predict their behavior, and measure the impact of human interference. The …

In this paper, dynamic modelling of a hovering type autonomous underwater vehicle
(HAUV), equipped with thruster and ballast tanks, is presented. Ballast tanks are among the …

The present paper aims to develop a model that facilitates the control of an autonomous
underwater vehicle. To this end, a number of ballast tanks were added to the vehicle in …
