Optimization-Based Automatic Docking and Berthing of ASVs Using Exteroceptive Sensors: Theory and Experiments

Docking of autonomous surface vehicles (ASVs) involves intricate maneuvering at low speeds under the influence of unknown environmental forces, and is often a challenging operation even for experienced helmsmen. In this paper, we propose an optimization-based trajectory planner for performing automa...
