In this paper approach for the underwater sensor network based on the blue-green laser has been proposed. We describe the application of the underwater sensor network in the undersea exploration, and discuss the difficulties in the traditional underwater sensor network. A basic of prototype of underwater laser sensor network has been advanced, which include the architecture of laser network and...

Improving the safety of diving and increasing knowledge about the adaptation of the human body to underwater and hyperbaric environment require specifically developed underwater instrumentation for physiological measurements. In fact, none of the routine clinical devices for health control is suitable for in-water and/or under-pressure operation. The present paper addresses novel technological ...

In the past few years wireless Sensor Network has been an emerging technology. As it is a permutation of computation, sensing, and communication. In the 70% of the earth, a huge amount of unexploited resources lies covered by oceans. To coordinate interact and share information among themselves to carry out sensing and monitoring function underwater sensor network consists a number of various s...

The control of underwater robots presents a number of unique and formidable challenges. Underwater robot dynamics are highly nonlinear, coupled, and timevarying, and subject to hydrodynamic uncertainties and external disturbances such as current. Unlike land mobile robots, underwater robots cannot use GPS (Global Positioning System). Most popular underwater positioning sensors are sonar-based, ...

Underwater Wireless Sensor Network (UWSN) communication at high frequencies is extremely challenging. The intricacies presented by the underwater environment are far more compared to the terrestrial environment. The prime reason for such intricacies are the physical characteristics of the underwater environment that have a big impact on electromagnetic (EM) signals. Acoustics signals are by far...

It is an auspicious time for this first-ever ISRR special session on the topic of underwater robotics. Underwater robots are now performing high-resolution acoustic, optical, and physical oceanographic surveys in the deep ocean that previously were considered impractical or infeasible. For example: in 2001 the Argo II underwater robotic vehicle, [1], was employed to discover the first off-axis ...

In recent years, underwater imaging has gained a lot of popularity partly due to the availability of off-the-shelf consumer cameras, but also due to a growing interest in the ocean floor by science and industry. Apart from capturing single images or sequences, the application of methods from the area of computer vision has gained interest as well. However, water affects image formation in two m...

Despite the potential importance of the local structure of micropathogen populations for the epidemiology of vector‐borne diseases, the spatial and temporal heterogeneity of these populations is often neglected. This variability may have strong effects on micropathogen transmission, and therefore needs to be considered more explicitly to understand disease dynamics. Here, we examin...

The applications of underwater vehicles have shown a dramatic increase in recent years, such as, mines clearing operation, feature tracking, cable or pipeline tracking and deep ocean exploration. According to different applications, the mechanical and electrical configuration and shape of an underwater vehicle are different. For instance, manipulators are necessary when doing mines clearing ope...

The maritime domain continues to be important for our society. Significant investments continue to be made to increase our knowledge about what “happens” underwater, whether at or near the sea surface, within the water column, or at the seabed. The latest geophysical, archaeological, and oceanographical surveys deliver more accurate global knowledge at increased resolutions. Surveillance applic...
