Collision detection is critical for ensuring the safety of planned paths. However, it imposes a non-negligible computational burden on motion planners, motivating extensive studies on collision-detection acceleration. In commonly used phase-based collision-detection methods, the broad phase employs hierarchical structu …

Underwater robot learning relies on simulators that integrate high-fidelity hydrodynamics, convenient learning interfaces, and a credible transition to real scenarios. In this work, we present FinsSim, a reality-aligned integrated simulation platform for Sim-to-Real underwater robot learning. FinsSim first constructs h …

Vision-based underwater target tracking is challenged by unreliable depth measurements and unknown target motion. This paper proposes a stereo visual-servoing framework for an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV). For perception, the framework derives a stable 3D relative state from stereo images through target-specific …
