Remote Environmental Monitoring Units: An Autonomous Vehicle for Characterizing Coastal Environments*

In oceanography, there has been a growing emphasis on coastal regions, partially because of their inherent complexity, as well as the increasing acknowledgment of anthropogenic impacts. To improve understanding and characterization of coastal dynamics, there has been significant effort devoted to the development of autonomous systems that sample the ocean on relevant scales. Autonomous underwat...

Low Cost UAV-based Remote Sensing for Autonomous Wildlife Monitoring

In recent years, developments in unmanned aerial vehicles, lightweight on-board computers, and low-cost thermal imaging sensors offer a new opportunity for wildlife monitoring. In contrast with traditional methods now surveying endangered species to obtain population and location has become more cost-effective and least time-consuming. In this paper, a low-cost UAV-based remote sensing platform...

Obstacle avoidance for an autonomous vehicle using force field method

This paper presents a force field concept for guiding a vehicle at a high speed maneuver. This method is  similar to potential field method. In this paper, motion constrains like vehicles velocity, distance to obstacle and tire conditions and such lane change conditions as zero slop condition and zero lateral acceleration are discussed. After that, possible equations as vehicles path ar...

An Adaptive, Scalable and Self-Healing Sensor Network Architecture for Autonomous Coastal Environmental Monitoring

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are key technology enablers for the current and near future security and surveillance systems. In order to build realtime, multi-modal, high resolution monitoring in those systems, WSN applications need to address critical challenges such as autonomy, scalability, self-healing and simplicity. Based on the observation that various biological systems have developed...
