Instantaneous Planning, Control and Safety for Navigation in Unknown Underwater Spaces

Description

Navigating autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) in unknown environments is significantly challenging due to poor visibility, weak signal transmission, and dynamic water currents. These factors pose challenges in accurate global localization, reliable communication, and obstacle avoidance. Local sensing provides critical real time environmental data to enable online decision making. However, the inherent noise in underwater sensor measurements introduces uncertainty, complicating planning and co
