Analysis of Hybrid Cable-Thruster actuated ROV in heavy lifting interventions

Nikolas Sacchi, Enrico Simetti, Gianluca Antonelli, Giovanni Indiveri, Vincent Creuze, Marc Gouttefarde

IROS 2022poster

Many operations performed by work class Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs) require the manipulation of heavy loads. An example is the manipulation and grouting of armour stones. A way to increase the working capabilities of the ROV is to introduce cables among the set of actuators. The cable lengths…

Satellite-Based Tele-Operation of an Underwater Vehicle-Manipulator System. Preliminary Experimental Results

Paolo Di Lillo, Daniele Di Vito, Enrico Simetti, Giuseppe Casalino, Gianluca Antonelli

ICRA 2018poster

Within the European project DexROV the topic of underwater intervention is addressed. In particular, a remote control room is connected through a satellite communication link to surface vessel, which is in turn connected to an UVMS (Underwater Vehicle-Manipulator System) with an umbilical cable. The…

On autonomous cooperative Underwater Floating Manipulation Systems

Ninad Manerikar, Giuseppe Casalino, Enrico Simetti, Sandro Torelli, Alessandro Sperindé

ICRA 2015poster

In this paper we present a novel co-operative control policy purely for the transportation of large objects in underwater environments using two free floating vehicles, each one endowed with a 7 d.o.f redundant manipulator. Due to the presence of harsh conditions in underwater scenarios, it is extre…
