CERBERUS: Autonomous Legged and Aerial Robotic Exploration in the Tunnel and Urban Circuits of the DARPA Subterranean Challenge
(Journal article, 2021)Autonomous exploration of subterranean environments constitutes a major frontier for robotic systems as underground settings present key challenges that can render robot autonomy hard to achieve. This has motivated the ... -
Design and Validation of a Course Control System for a Wave-Propelled Unmanned Surface Vehicle
(Journal article, 2022)Unlike common marine vessels, wave-propelled vehicles cannot directly control their speed, but rely instead on the forces exerted by the environment to navigate as intended. The unique navigation capabilities of such ... -
Monitoring the Growth of Coastal Algae Blooms in Harsh Weather Conditions Using a Wave-Propelled ASV: Challenges and Lessons Learned
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)This article presents the experience gathered on a 19-day-long field campaign with the wave-propelled, solar-powered, autonomous surface vehicle AutoNaut. The operation was conducted in Frohavet, a semienclosed sea along ... -
Three-dimensional obstacle avoidance and path planning for unmanned underwater vehicles using elastic bands
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Unmanned underwater vehicles (UUVs) have become indispensable tools for inspection, maintenance, and repair operations in the underwater domain. The major focus and novelty of this work is collision-free autonomous navigation ...
