Beyond the Flat Seafloor: A Closed-Form Two-View Constraint to Aid Sidescan Sonar Reconstruction
Sidescan sonar is a common sensor for both manned and autonomous marine exploration and mapping, yet very few methods build upon or exploit the geometric projection model of the sensor. As sidescan sonar is limited to a 1D range measurement, many approximations are frequently used, including the long-standing assumptio...
