Abstract
A new algorithm and a method of coordinate referencing of a un-manned autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) to underwater objects using stereo images are proposed for automated inspection of bottom industrial in-frastructure facilities. Computational experiments have been carried out using a modeling simulator based on a hybrid multiprocessor computing architecture. The proposed solutions have been estimated in terms of efficiency.
