The recently increased interests in visual measurement and control applied to underwater robots have challenged the existing visual technologies that once were sufficient in ground-based applications. This paper surveys the major difficulties and representative applications in underwater visual measurement and control, most of which result from the particularity of the aquatic environments. Specifically, the state of the art of the underwater vision is summarized from different perspectives, primarily involving key points and existing problems. In particular, the application of the embedded vision-based system in the context of bionics is accented. Finally, the potential development trends and possible breakthroughs are discussed, shedding light on the effort both in hardware and software to advance real-world underwater vision applications.

In this paper, containment control for continuous-time multi-agent systems with multiple interacting leaders is investigated. According to the role each agent plays in the multi-agent team, the agents are classified into two categories: leaders and followers. The containment control problem in this paper is that the leaders converge to a desired formation and the followers move into the convex hull spanned by the leaders’ final positions. A sufficient condition for containment control is that the union of the interaction graphs has a spanning tree frequently enough as the system evolves. It is shown that the followers’ positions in the convex hull are dynamic due to the switching topology. The theoretical results are illustrated by some simulations.

The leader-following problem of first-order integral multi-agent systems with communication noises is investigated in this paper. To attenuate the noise's effect, a positive time-varying gain a(t) is employed in the protocol. It is proved that the proposed protocol can solve the mean square leader-following problem if the following conditions hold: 1) the communication topology graph has a spanning tree;2) ∫∞0 a(t)dt = ∞;3) lim t→∞ a(t) = 0. The requirements on a(t) are different from most existing papers, where a(t) is required to satisfy that ∫∞0 a(t) = ∞ and ∫∞0 a2(t) < ∞. It turns out that ∫∞0 a2(t) < ∞ implies lim t→∞ a(t) = 0, if a(t) is uniformly continuous. Therefore this paper relaxes the requirements on a(t) to some extent. In addition, under the mild condition (a(t) is uniformly continuous) these three conditions are necessary as well. Furthermore, if ∫∞0 a2(t)<∞, the employed protocol is proved to be able to solve the almost sure leader-following problem of first-order integral multi-agent system. Finally, a simulation example is provided to verify the effectiveness of the employed protocols.

In the recent years haptic interfaces became a reliable solution in order to solve problems which arise when humans interact with the environment. If in the research area of the haptic interaction between human and environment there are important researches, a innovative approach for the interaction between the robot and the environment using haptic interfaces and virtual projection method is presented in this paper. In order to control this interaction we used the Virtual Projection Method where haptic control interfaces of impedance and admittance will be embedded. The obtained results, validated by simulations assure stability, stiffness, high maneuverability and adaptability for rescue walking robots in order to move in disaster, dangerous and hazardous areas.

Based on the point of view of neuroethology and cognition-psychology, general frame of theory for intelligent systems is presented by means of principle of relative entropy minimizing in this paper. Cream of the general frame of theory is to present and to prove basic principle of intelligent systems: entropy increases or decreases together with intelligence in the intelligent systems. The basic principle is of momentous theoretical significance and practical significance. From the basic principle can not only derive two kind of learning algorithms (statistical simulating annealing algorithms and annealing algorithms of mean-field theory approximation) for training large kinds of stochastic neural networks, but also can thoroughly dispel misgivings created by second law of thermodynamics on peoples psychology, hence make one be fully confident of facing life. Because of Human society, natural world, and even universe all are intelligent systems.

A biomimetic underwater vehicle propelled by two undulating long-fins is introduced in this paper. The concerned vehicle is propelled by two symmetrical undulating long-fins installed on both sides. Ten servo motors are employed to drive the long-fins and cosine wave function is employed for motor control. A real-time control system is designed for controlling the long-fins by adjusting its oscillating frequency and oscillating amplitude. An inertial measurement unit is installed to collect the accelerations and angular velocity. To obtain the relationship between oscillating frequency/amplitude and swimming performance, kinematic analysis and hydromechanic analysis are given. By dividing the long-fin into many small elements and computing the hydrodynamic force acting on each element, the instantaneous thrust generated by the long-fin is obtained. Then the average thrust of the long-fin is obtained by summing up the forces acted on the elements in one undulating period. Then swimming experiments are carried out to validate the vehicle design and kinematic analysis and hydromechanic analysis. And two swimming motion modes including marching and rotating locomotion are chosen. Finally, discussions between the swimming performance and the oscillating parameters are given.
