Development and testing of an underwater optical imaging system to enable unmanned underwater vehicle/submarine rendezvous / J. Giesbrecht ; G.D. Watt.: D68-2/155-2018E-PDF
"This document describes the design and test of an optical position sensing system to enable autonomous rendezvous between a submarine and an Unmanned Underwater Vehicle (UUV). The vision system uses LED lighting on the UUV and a monocular camera system to predict the UUV position and pose relative to the camera. Important aspects include the use of a variety of computer vision algorithms changed adaptively over the course ofthe UUV approach, as well as the use of active control of the camera exposure to enable computer vision"--Abstract.
