Published purpose
The Project goal is to transfer the unique near-body flow field sensing mechanism of the fish lateral line to marine autonomous surface ships (MASS). Through well-controlled towing-tank testing, and self-propelled open-water trials, the Project aims to replicate generic surface ship behavior with time-resolved distributed pressure-sensing. The successful outcome of the project will provide real-time flow-field reconstructions based on a sparse pressure feedback system that enhances MASS self-situational awareness and helps MASS fill gaps left by optical and acoustic systems in turbid, cluttered, and dynamic-flow conditions
