Research interests
  • seafloor 3D visual reconstruction:?development of deep-sea imaging hardware and processing pipelines for calibration, localisation and 3D mapping of the seafloor with full-field uncertainty characterisation?
  • automated interpretation of data: development of AI methods for rapid scalable interpretation of seafloor imagery
  • robotics: development of low-cost, long endurance seafloor imaging floats and highly intelligent and manoeuvrable robotic imaging platform for visual survey of complex environments
