Hybrid aerial underwater vehicles (HAUVs) provide unique capabilities for aerial and underwater observation and sampling, with a variety of configurations already developed. However, challenges in maneuverability, payload integration, and practicality persist, while their specific applications remai
Hybrid aerial underwater vehicles (HAUVs) exhibit significant potential due to their ability to operate seamlessly in the air and water domains. However, balancing rapid maneuverability in both media and achieving stability during the cross-domain phase remains a significant challenge. Inspired by t
Hybrid aerial-underwater vehicles (HAUVs) are attracting significant interest for their unique capability to operate across both air and water. However, achieving a lightweight design coupled with efficient cross-domain performance remains a formidable challenge. This paper introduces Nezha-T, a nov
The hybrid aerial underwater vehicles (HAUVs) have promising applications due to their capability to operate in both air and water domains. It is a challenge to balance the rapid maneuverability in both media and the stability at the cross-domain phase. In this letter, Nezha-B, a bone-shaped HAUV pr
Underwater thermocline, common in the lakes and ocean, plays a vital role in meteorological forecasting in the ocean and lakes dynamics research. This letter proposes a method for rapid and multipoint observation of thermocline variations with time and space using an airdropped micro-profiler array,…
The distinct design concepts of the vehicles operating in air and water is one of the tremendous challenges that constrain the development of the hybrid aerial underwater vehicle (HAUV). This incompatibility consequently results in the enlarging volume and weight of the existing prototypes, as well
