Description

The authors present an acoustic camera simulator for robotic use in a 2024 paper. Forward looking imaging sonar has become a key sensor for marine robots, since it sees where cameras fail. Testing robot perception needs simulated sonar images that are fast and realistic.

Their simulator builds acoustic images from scene depth alone. It treats the sonar beam as a set of rays from the camera center and applies a simplified sonar model plus error models for environmental effects. Built inside a standard robot simulator, it needs no extra components. Tank tests compared simulated and real images, both visually and by measures.
