Relative Vessel Motion Tracking using Sensor Fusion, Aruco Markers, and MRU Sensors

This paper presents a novel approach for estimating the relative motion between two moving offshore vessels. The method is based on a sensor fusion algorithm including a vision system and two motion reference units (MRUs). The vision system makes use of the open-source computer vision library OpenCV...
