摘要: We describe recent results obtained with AQUA, a mobile robot capable of swimming, walking and amphibious operation. Designed to rely primarily on visual sensors, the AQUA uses vision navigate underwater using servo-based guidance, also obtain high-resolution range scans its local environment. This paper describes some pragmatic logistic obstacles encountered, provides an overview basic capabilities vehicle associated sensors. Moreover, this presents first ever transition from swimming.
