Path planning for sailboat robots is a challenging task particularly due to the kinematics and
dynamics modelling of such kinds of wind propelled boats. The problem is divided into two …

The power supply for ocean robots has always been an important issue since it has a fatal
influence on the endurance of these vehicles. However, the marine renewable energy …

The marine environment is constantly at risk from coastal urbanization. The deterioration of
coastal and marine environments is evidenced by the decline of mangroves and the …

Biological diversity or biodiversity is an important element in the river water management
system. The interaction between the various organisms in the river makes it a very complex …

Autonomous sailing robots have attracted much attention, but challenges arise due to the
sailing tests require an environment with both aerodynamic and hydrodynamic fields and a …

Here, we present a comprehensive holography‐based system designed for detecting
microparticles through microscopic holographic projections of water samples. This system is …
