This paper describes a new class of autonomous marine vehicles named Medusa and highlights their role in a number of EU projects addressing multiple vehicle scenarios. The MEDUSA vehicles, with surface and diving versions, were designed and built at the Institute for Systems and Robotics, IST, Univ. de Lisboa, Portugal as a result of an effort aimed at affording researchers and practitioners of marine...
The EC MORPH project, described in [1], proposes a novel concept of an underwater robotic system that emerges from the integration, albeit in a non-physical manner, of several different mobile robot-modules with distinct and complementary resources. This approach aims to afford end-users efficient tools to map the underwater environment with great accuracy in situations that defy existing technology:...
Cognitive Autonomous Diving Buddy (CADDY) is an FP7 project initiated in February 2014. The key objectives of the project are to develop, implement, and demonstrate in the course of missions at sea the efficacy of a number of innovative systems to assist human divers during the execution of demanding scientific and commercial activities in hazardous underwater environments. At the core of CADDY is...
Currently, VANETs (Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks) are attracting a lot of interest in the scientific community and this is mainly due to its usefulness in the deployment of new Intelligent Transportation Systems. However, due to the very high mobility of vehicles in this sort of networks the handover process represents a serious problem, in particular for real-time applications such as VoIP. Therefore,...
