<p>The ocean area occupies a large part of the earth’s area, how to use underwater robots to carry out deep-sea exploration tasks has become an urgent problem in the field of marine resources.

Due to the complexity of the underwater environment during deep-sea exploration, the sensors of the underwater robot need to be calibrated to facilitate data collection and acquisition. To acquire and process underwater image data, the robot uses optical and acoustic imaging principles.
