Experimental Investigation of Relative Localization Estimation in a Coordinated Formation Control of Low-Cost Underwater Drones.

This study presents a relative localization estimation method for a group of low-cost underwater drones (l-UD), which only uses visual feedback provided by an on-board camera and IMU data. It aims to design a distributed controller for a group of robots to reach a specific shape. This controller is based on a leader-follower architecture.
