  • Abstract
    We give here a short overview of recent contributions of the Jacobs Robotics group in underwater mapping. This work reaches up to 3D mapping of complex structures, which is of particular interest for Safety, Security, and Rescue Robotics (SSRR) missions with AUV, which tend to occur not in plain open waters but in complex environments. Examples of potential use cases include harbor security, infrastructure inspection after disasters, or military reconnaissance.
