I’m happy to announce that my paper with Jungseok Hong and Junaed Sattar on the Autonomous Diver-Relative Operator Configuration algorithm (ADROC) has been accepted for publication at ICRA 2022! I’m excited to present this work at ICRA, it describes a novel technique for diver approach by and AUV using only monocular vision. This method includes a rough distance estimation method based on biological priors (diver shoulder width) which has been quite interesting to work with.

I’m excited to announce that my paper with Sadman Sakib Enan on Robot-to-Robot Communication via Motion has been accepted for publication at IROS 2022, in Kyoto. I’m even more excited to announce that it’s a finalist for the best paper in Cognitive Robotics! I won’t be attending, but I’m looking forward to the presentation of this paper. Enan developed R2RCVM based on my original implementation of RCVM, and I helped to evaluate his new version by determining that human participants could accurately transcribe gestural conversations between robots.
