Here is a project that focuses on enhancing information flow between underwater robotic systems and subsea assets. The project Mare-IT involves using the Cuttlefish AUV with two robotic arms to interact with subsea structures. The robot can switch between autonomous and semi-autonomous mode.
These AUVs will be able to take over tasks that were done by remotely operated vehicles in the past. The above video shows how it works.
