The Jacobs Robotics group has several projects in Marine Robotics. The groups expertise is in underwater perception, e.g., object recognition and localization, and world-modeling, e.g., 2D and 3D mapping, using cameras as well as different forms of sonar. Our projects include the following ones:
- 3D Mapping of the U-Boot Bunker Valentin memorial by Air-, Ground-, and Underwater-Robots (Valentin3D – English) [BMBF]
- Robotic Underwater Bridge Inspection (FloodEvac – English) [BMBF]
- CEMRA OpenAUV Initiative [IEEE]
- Effective Dexterous ROV Operations in Presence of Communications Latencies (DexROV) [EU H2020]
- Cognitive autonomous diving buddy (CADDY) [EU FP7]
- Marine Robotic System of Self Organizing, Logically Linked Physical Node (MORPH) [EU FP7]
- Cooperative Cognitive Control for Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (Co3-AUVs) [EU FP7]
- Lead Zeppelin [Industry Project]
