Underwater identification and grasping of objects is a major challenge faced by the marine engineers even today. Nowadays, almost all underwater operations are either autonomous or tele-operated. In fact remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) are used to deal with inspection tasks and industrial maintenance whenever there is need for intervention. However, the field of autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) is a blooming filed with research involving proper moving base control and forces interacting which leads to complicated configuration. Hence the presented work is focused implementation of end-effector with appropriate control and signal processing resulting in autonomous manipulation of movement under water.
