Vision-based Frozen Surface Egress: A Docking Algorithm for the ENDURANCE

This paper presents a vision-based docking algorithm for an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV). The algorithm allows the AUV to egress through a melthole in the frozen surface of a lake after the AUV’s dead-reckoning system brings the vehicle in the vicinity of the melthole. A blinking light source...
