AUV Workbench: Integrated 3D for Interoperable Mission Rehearsal, Reality and Replay
نویسندگان
چکیده
Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) are in operation and under study around the world. As techniques are being developed for practical use, different vehicles and tools are proliferating. Each vehicle requires dedicated tools, broad knowledge and troubleshooting skills to plan and analyze missions. Executing these missions is often fraught with operational challenges as well. Multiple systems or multi-national operations further complicate these maneuvers. Current tools, data archives and equipment do not interoperate and integration of competing systems is difficult already.

In recent years, numerous military and civilian applications for autonomous underwater vehicles have been identified or proposed and a number of production and research vehicles have been developed to address many of these. However, the use of vehicle-specific data formats and mission planning systems hampers cooperative research efforts by fostering the implementation of stove-pipe systems. Ad...
متن کاملIntegrated Simulation for Rapid Development of Autonomous Underwater Vehicles
The development and testing of Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) hardware and software is greatly complicated by vehicle inaccessibility during operation. Integrated simulation remotely links vehicle components and support equipment with graphics simulation workstations, allowing complete real-time, pre-mission, pseudo-mission and post-mission visualization and analysis in the lab environment...

متن کاملIntegration of Wireless Gesture Tracking, Object Tracking, and 3D Reconstruction in the Perceptive Workbench
The Perceptive Workbench endeavors to create a spontaneous and unimpeded interface between the physical and virtual worlds. Its vision-based methods for interaction constitute an alternative to wired input devices and tethered tracking. Objects are recognized and tracked when placed on the display surface. By using multiple infrared light sources, the object’s 3D shape can be captured and inser...
