Inspection planning for sensor coverage of 3D marine structures

We introduce an algorithm to achieve complete sensor coverage of complex, three-dimensional structures surveyed by an autonomous agent with multiple degrees of freedom. Motivated by the application of an ocean vehicle performing an autonomous ship hull inspection, we consider a planning problem for...
