  • Abstract
    This paper represents a novel autonomous jellyfish removal robot system, called JEROS (Jellyfish Elimination RObotic Swarm). The JEROS consists of an autonomous surface vehicle (ASV), a grid for jellyfish removal, and an autonomous navigation system. Once jellyfish are detected using a camera, efficient path to remove the jellyfish is generated. Then, the jellyfish are sliced up with the grid installed underneath the JEROS by following the path. The prototype was implemented, and its feasibility was demonstrated through field tests.
