Project Goals |Development and validation in the laboratory of a prototype (SLAM-Net) for visualization, localization and mapping for Remotely Operated Vehicles.

Creation of new technical knowledge in the areas of SLAM, Deep Learning, Computer Vision, Bayesian methods applied to Computer Vision, in order to endow existing systems with intelligence to act autonomously. The ultimate goal of this project is to develop Artificial Intelligence systems that enable existing subsea vehicles to act autonomously, without human intervention.
