The major goal of this project is to explore the possibility of using Multiple Autonomous Underwater Vehicles for increasing the performance of underwater optical imaging systems. The main objective, in this context, is to simulate the potential benefits that multiple vehicles can have in increasing the range, imaging footprint, and potentially 3-dimensional applications that can be afforded using this new approach. This report details the Year 3 efforts that proposed a new way for obtaining extended range images without the use of scanning hardware. The proposed imaging system would be deployable on Multiple AUVs with source and receivers separated by substantial lengths.
