Underwater autonomous manipulation for intervention missions AUVs

TLDR
One of the first trials of autonomous intervention performed by SAUVIM in the oceanic environment is described, which consists in a sequence of autonomous tasks finalized to search for the target and to securely hook a cable to it in order to bring the target to the surface.
