| Abstract: | As part of a continuous research and development of underwater robotics technology at ITB, a vision- based distance measurement system for an Unmanned
Underwater vehicle (UUV) has been designed. The proposed system can be used to
predict horizontal distance between underwater vehicle and wall in front of vehicle. At
the same time, it can be used to predict vertical distance between vehicle and
the surface below it as well. A camera and a single laser pointer
are used to obtain data needed by our algorithm. The vision-based navigation
consists of two main processes which are the detection of a laser spot
using image processing
and the calculation of the distance
based on laser spot position on the image. |
