Abstract:

The funding for this work was used to construct an advanced underwater optical imaging system. The optical system was used in concert with our existing 3-dimensional sonar imaging system to obtain in-situ ground truth about the identical animals that we were sensing with our sonar device. This project studied and developed advanced optical techniques whose long term goal was to advance the state of the art in-situ remote sensing pelagic animals sections.
