Underwater robots often need to communicate with external localization sensors. The low bandwidth in such communications is one of the bottlenecks in achieving accurate tracking control. Toward this end, we adopt a novel periodic event-triggered control (PETC) which allows a robotic fish to reduce i
Recent offshore drilling activities have dramatically bloomed oil and gas production. Due to extreme weather, such as hurricanes and tsunamis, offshore oil platforms may need to be constantly monitored in case of unexpected dangers. Using robots to monitor and prevent these dangerous situations is a…
Three-dimensionally (3D) maneuverable robotic fish are highly desirable due to their ability to explore and survey the underwater environment. Existing depth control mechanisms are typically focused on using either compressed air or a piston to generate changes in volume. However, this often makes t
Three-dimensionally (3D) maneuverable robotic fish are highly desirable due to their abilities to explore and survey the underwater environment. Existing depth control mechanism is focused on using compressed air or piston to generate volume change, which makes the system bulky and impractical in a…
