Tracking Sharks With Robots

Scientists have been tracking sharks with robots for years However, a new model can do so while simultaneously tracking the animal. The system was designed by biologists from Mote Marine Laboratory, and engineers from Harvey Mudd College using components that were readily available.

It is a formidable gripping device capable of enduring pull-off forces of 340 times its own weight. It is also able to detect and alter its path according to the changes in objects around the home.

Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs)

Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) are robots that are programmable and according to their design they can drift, move or glide through the ocean with no real-time supervision from human operators. They come with sensors that record water parameters, explore and map features of the ocean's geology and habitats and more.

They are typically controlled from a surface vessel by Wi-Fi or an acoustic link to send data back to the operator. AUVS are able to collect temporal or spatial data, and are able to be used as a large team to cover more ground more quickly than one vehicle.

AUVs can utilize GPS and the Global Navigation Satellite System to determine their location around the globe, and the distance they've traveled from their initial position. This positioning information, along with sensors in the environment that transmit information to the computer systems onboard, allows AUVs to follow a planned trajectory without losing track of their goals.

When a research mission is completed, the AUV will be able to float to the surface and be returned to the research vessel from which it was launched. In contrast an AUV that is resident could remain in the water and conduct regular, pre-programmed checks for a period of months. In either case, an AUV will periodically surface to transmit its location via a GPS or acoustic signal, which is transmitted to the surface vessel.

Some AUVs can communicate with their operators constantly via a satellite connection on the research vessel. Scientists can continue their research on the ship while the AUV gathers data underwater. Other AUVs communicate with their owners at certain times. For example when they require to replenish their sensors or check their status.

Free Think claims that AUVs are not only used to collect oceanographic data but they can also be used to search underwater resources, including minerals and gas. They can also be used to assist in environmental disaster response and assist with rescue and search operations after oil spills or tsunamis. They can also be used to monitor subsurface volcanic activity and monitor the condition of marine life such as coral reefs and whale populations.

Curious Robots

Contrary to traditional undersea robotics, which are programmed to search only for one specific feature on the ocean floor, these curious underwater robots are built so they can explore and adjust to changing conditions. This is crucial, as the conditions below the waves is often unpredictable. If the water suddenly gets hot it could alter the behavior of marine animals or even cause an oil spill. Robots that are curious are able to detect the changes swiftly and efficiently.

One team of researchers is working on a new robotic shark platform that utilizes reinforcement learning to teach the robot to be curious about its surroundings. The robot, which resembles the image of a child wearing a yellow jacket with a green hand can be taught to recognize patterns which could be a sign of an interesting discovery. It can also be taught to make decisions based on the past actions. The results of the research could be used to design an autonomous robot that can learn and adapting itself to changing environments.

Researchers are also using robots to study parts that are too dangerous for humans to dive into. Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution's (WHOI) for instance, has a robot called WARP-AUV which is used to study wrecks of ships and to locate them. This robot is able identify reef creatures and even discern jellyfish and semi-transparent fish from their dim backgrounds.

It takes a long time to teach an individual how to perform this. The brain of the WARP-AUV has been trained by exposing it to thousands of images of marine life making it able to recognize familiar species upon its first dive. In addition to its capabilities as a marine detective the WARP-AUV is able to send topside supervisors real-time images of underwater scenes and sea creatures.

Other teams are working to create robots with the same curiosity as humans. For instance, a group headed by the University of Washington's Paul G. Allen School of Computer Science & Engineering is investigating ways to teach robots to be curious about their surroundings. The team is part of a Honda Research Institute USA initiative to develop machines that are curious.

Remote Missions

A myriad of uncertainties could result in an unplanned mission failure. Scientists aren't sure how long a mission can last and how well the components of the spacecraft work, or if any other forces or objects might affect the operation of the spacecraft. The Remote Agent software is designed to help reduce the uncertainty. It can perform many of the complicated tasks ground control personnel would do if they were DS1 during the mission.

The Remote Agent software system consists of a planner/scheduler and an executive. It also incorporates model-based reasoning algorithms. The planner/scheduler produces a set of time-based and events-based activities, known as tokens, that are then delivered to the executive. The executive decides on how to transform the tokens into an array of commands that are transmitted directly to spacecraft.

During the test, a DS1 crewmember is on hand to resolve any issues that arise outside of the scope of the test. Regional bureaus must follow Department records management requirements and keep all documentation associated with the establishment of the remote mission.

SharkCam by REMUS

Sharks are elusive creatures, and researchers have no idea about their activities beneath the ocean's surface. But scientists using an autonomous underwater vehicle known as SharkCam from REMUS are beginning to pierce that blue barrier, and the results are both amazing and terrifying.

The SharkCam team, a group from Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, took the torpedo-shaped SharkCam to Guadalupe Island last year to observe and film great white sharks in their natural habitat. The 13 hours of video footage combined with the visuals from the acoustic tag that is attached to the sharks tell us a lot about their underwater behavior.

The REMUS SharkCam, which is built in Pocasset, MA by Hydroid and is designed to follow the position of an animal that has been tagged without disrupting its behavior or alarming it. It is a ultra-short navigation device that determines the range, bearing, and depth of the animal. Then it focuses on the shark at a specified distance and location (left or right above or below) and captures its swimming and interaction with its environment. It can communicate with scientists at the surface every 20 seconds and can respond to commands to change the speed, depth or standoff distance.

When Roger Stokey, REMUS SharkCam developer Roger Stokey, and Edgar Mauricio Hoyos Padilla, Pelagios Kakunja shark researcher from Mexico's Marine Conservation Society, first imagined tracking great whites using the self-propelled REMUS SharkCam torpedo, they concerned that the torpedo could disrupt the sharks' movement and possibly make them fearful of. But in an article recently published in the Journal of Fish Biology, Skomal and his coworkers report that despite nine bumps and bites from great whites weighing thousands of pounds over a week of study off the coast of Guadalupe, the SharkCam did not fail and revealed some interesting new behaviors about the great white shark.

shark-ai-ultra-voice-control-robot-vacuuResearchers interpreted the interactions of sharks and REMUS SharkCam (which was tracking four sharks tagged) as predatory behavior. They recorded 30 shark 2 in 1 vacuum and mop robot interactions with the robot including simple approaches, bumps and on nine occasions, aggressive bites by sharks that appeared to be targeting REMUS.
