Underwater optical imaging to aid in docking an unmanned underwater vehicle to a submarine : preliminary experimental investigations / J. Giesbrecht, J. Scrutton.: D68-2/155-2017E-PDF

"This report discusses preliminary experimental investigations into the use of optical imaging to track a UUV (Unmanned Underwater Vehicle) that would be docking with a submarine. Two different types of underwater cameras were used to image a variety of optical “targets”, under controlled but realistic conditions, at Defence R&D Canada – Atlantic’s Acoustic Calibration Barge (ACB) in Bedford Basin near Halifax, Nova Scotia. A variety of imaging methods are employed and evaluated"--Abstract.
