- Abstract: The oceans in the Earth's in one of the last border lines on the World, with
only a fraction of their depths having been explored. Advancements in
technology have led to the development of Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs)
that can operate independently and perform complex tasks underwater. These
vehicles have revolutionized underwater exploration, allowing us to study and
understand our oceans like never before. In addition to AUVs, image processing
techniques have also been developed that can help us to better understand the
seabed and its features. In this comprehensive survey, we will explore the
latest advancements in AUV technology and seabed image processing techniques.
We'll discuss how these advancements are changing the way we explore and
understand our oceans, and their potential impact on the future of marine
science. Join us on this journey to discover the exciting world of underwater
exploration and the technologies that are driving it forward.
