Abstract The underwater or marine environment has always been a challenging environment for robots due to the difficulties that arise when placing a robot such robust and dynamic condition. However, recent advancements in technology have seen the use of a swarm of robots that are affordable but yet are of better quality than traditional robots in certain applications. This shift has opened up new possibilities for exploring the underwater world. Intelligent swarm underwater robotics is an emerging topic that has gained significant attention in recent years. The use of swarm robotics has been

Abstract Autonomous marine platforms such as Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) and Autonomous Surface Vehicles (ASVs) have a large potential to realize much more efficient ocean observation compared with ship based methodology. Our group pursue the possibility of such autonomous systems by means of the latest robotics, information processing technologies, artificial intelligence, and sensing technologies. These systems will realize wide-area, high-accuracy, and long-term observation through collaboration of multiple autonomous agents such as AUVs. In this talk, some of our latest

I build ROVs that plan their own inspection dives, so reef coverage is decided before the vehicle enters the water instead of left to the pilot. I designed both the planner and the vehicle, and they work on real Red Sea reefs, not in simulation. Robotics systems engineer at KAUST, looking for Lead, Senior or Architect roles in marine robotics.
