We believe that in building homes, we have the opportunity to uplift everyone in our vicinity, from those who attend school nearby to those who live next door.

About alabaster.

Alabaster Homes is a premier builder. We draw our inspiration from superb design that spans centuries and nations, from the balance and harmony found in nature, and from the communities for which these homes serve.

Read our story

Our Residences

Step inside an Alabaster home and experience how every detail has been meticulously considered and executed. Everything from layout, to how each room is conceived, to the tiniest finishing touch has been carefully selected to create a cohesive whole. We build homes with the idea that when our environments are made with purpose, we can focus on what is important.

Build & Care

To see our values manifest in the homes we create, we take a different approach. Our work doesn’t stop when the home is built; instead, we are there for homeowners before, during, and after they settle into their new spaces. We bring all the aspects of building long-lasting homes in-house, ensuring every detail is handled with care.

Our concept of community goes beyond those in our immediate surroundings. We believe that in building homes, we have the opportunity to uplift everyone in our vicinity, from those who attend school nearby to those who live next door. As such, everything we touch and build is contextualized by the local landscape and those who populate it.

DEVELOPMENT OF PASSIVE VISION BASED RELATIVE STATION KEEPING FOR UNMANNED SURFACE VEHICLES

Unmanned surface vehicles (USVs) offer a versatile platform for various maritime applications, including research, surveillance, and search-and-rescue operations. A critical capability for USVs is maintaining position (station keeping) in dynamic environments and coordinating movement with other USVs (formation control) for collaborative missions. This thesis investigates control strategies for USVs operating in challenging conditions.

The initial focus is on evaluating traditional control methods like Backstepping and Sliding Mode controllers for station keeping in simulated environments with disturbances. The results from these tests pointed towards the need for a more robust control technique, like deep-learning based control for enhanced performance.

The thesis then explores formation control, a crucial aspect of cooperative USV missions. A vision-based passive control strategy utilizing a virtual leader concept is proposed. This approach leverages onboard cameras to detect markers on other USVs, eliminating the need for direct communication and potentially improving scalability and resilience.

Then the thesis presents vision-based formation control architecture and the station keeping controller evaluations. Simulation results are presented, analyzed, and used to draw conclusions about the effectiveness of the proposed approaches. Finally, the thesis discusses the implications of the findings and proposes potential future research directions
