See original Post: OceanTech | Milestone successfully reached!
The OceanTech project, led by us and co-promoted by IPMA, CEiiA, TEKEVER AS, OceanScan, University of Porto, TEKEVER ASDS, Usimeca, University of Algarve, Critical Materials, TEKEVER TI and Técnico Lisboa, has recently reached the 18 months milestone.
Abyssal AI, our research department, was at the industry day of VISUM 2019, a summer school which gathers researchers from academia and industry interested in computer vision and machine intelligence.
We shared the results of our research projects—Structure Inspection and Underwater SLAM-NET System—where we are using artificial intelligence to improve the efficiency of subsea operations. Therefore we showed how to:
> Automatically detect structure integrity threats and other entities (i.e. fish) on subsea videos;
> Reconstruct the surrounding 3D environment and estimate the movement of a subsea vehicle using a single video camera.
The discussion opened doors to great feedback and networking with all the participants, making it worth to work on a Saturday! Thank you VISUM for the invitation, we hope to see you next year!
