Abstract
In this paper, a new study was performed on the docking of AUV to docking station using light and light sensor system under the water. For this, a guiding system for AUV loading sensor system composed of lense, light sensor, signal processor, and processor and docking system with LED are proposed. An analysis on light sensor system and light-collecting lense to obtain accurate relative angle and measurement accuracy was performed. To prove this, the system was built and a basic experiment was performed. Finally, the feasibility of the developed docking system was verified the test in the water tank.
