Note(s): Accurate navigation (localization) is one of the most essential capacities for an intelligent/autonomous subsea vehicle. For many applications, reliable short-range horizontal positioning is difficult to achieve, particularly over flat bottom topography. A potential solution to this problem proposed in this paper utilizes a passive optical sensing method (optical flow computation) to estimate the vehicle displacement using the bottom surface texture.
