Image-based feature representation plays a critical role in visual localization, enabling robots to estimate their position and orientation in GPS-denied environments. However, this task is often undermined by significant variations in camera viewpoints and scene appearances. Recently, map-free visu
"Although methods for estimating the pose of objects in indoor scenes have achieved great success, the pose estimation of underwater objects remains challenging due to difficulties brought by the complex underwater environment, such as degraded illumination, blurring, and the substantial cost of obt…
Accurately localization between multi-robots is crucial for many underwater applications, such as tracking, convoying and subsea intervention tasks. 6D pose estimation is a fundamental task that enables precise object localization in 3D space with full six degrees of freedom. However, one critical c
Due to the unique characteristics of underwater environments, accurate 3D reconstruction of underwater objects poses a challenging problem in tasks such as underwater exploration and mapping. Traditional methods that rely on multiple sensor data for 3D reconstruction are time-consuming and face chal
The recovery of autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) has been a challenging mission due to the limited localization accuracy and movement capability of the AUVs. To overcome these limitations, we propose a novel design of a deployable underwater robot (DUR) for the recovery mission. Utilizing the o…
