The maintenance of permanent underwater observatories, submerged oil wells, cabled sensor networks, pipes and the deployment and recovery of benthic stations are a few of them. These tasks are addressed nowadays using manned submersibles or work-class ROVs, equipped with teleoperated arms under human supervision. Although researchers have recently opened the door to future I-AUVs, a long path is still necessary to achieve autonomous underwater interventions. This paper reviews the evolution timeline in autonomous underwater intervention systems. Milestone projects in the state of the art are reviewed, highlighting their principal contributions to the field. To the best of the authors' knowledge, only three vehicles have demonstrated some autonomous intervention capabilities so far: ALIVE, SAUVIM and GIRONA 500, being the last one the lightest one. In this paper GIRONA 500 I-AUV is presented and its software architecture discussed. Recent results in different scenarios are reported: (1) valve turning and connector plugging/unplugging while docked to a subsea panel, (2) free floating valve turning using learning by demonstration, and (3) multipurpose free-floating object recovery. The paper ends discussing the lessons learned so far" , "dc.description.sponsorship": "This work was supported by the Spanish project DPI2011-27977-C03v (TRITON) and three European Commissions Seventh Framework Program 2011-2015 projects: FP7-ICT-2011-7- 288704 (MORPH) and FP7- INFRASTRUCTURES-2012-312762 (EUROFLEETS2)" , "dc.format.mimetype": "application/pdf" , "dc.language.iso": "eng" , "dc.publisher": "Elsevier" , "dc.relation": "info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/MICINN//DPI2011-27977-C03-02/ES/COMAROB: ROBOTICA COOPERATIVA MARINA PARA EL MAPEO ACUSTICO Y LA INTERVENCION/" , "dc.relation.isformatof": "Versió postprint del document publicat a: http://dx.doi.org/10.3182/20140824-6-ZA-1003.02819" , "dc.relation.ispartof": "© IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 2014, vol. 47, núm. 3, p.12146-12159" , "dc.relation.ispartofseries": "Articles publicats (D-ATC)" , "dc.rights": "Tots els drets reservats" , "dc.subject": "Robots autònoms" , "dc.subject": "Autonomous robots" , "dc.subject": "Vehicles submergibles" , "dc.subject": "Submersibles" , "dc.title": "Intervention AUVs: The next challenge" , "dc.type": "info:eu-repo/semantics/article" , "dc.rights.accessRights": "info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess" , "dc.embargo.terms": "Cap" , "dc.relation.projectID": "info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/EC/FP7/288704/EU/Marine robotic system of self-organizing, logically linked physical nodes/MORPH" , "dc.relation.projectID": "info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/EC/FP7/312762/EU/New operational steps towards an alliance of European research fleets/EUROFLEETS2" , "dc.type.version": "info:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersion" , "dc.identifier.doi": "http://dx.doi.org/10.3182/20140824-6-ZA-1003.02819" , "dc.contributor.funder": "Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación (Espanya)" , "dc.relation.FundingProgramme": "FP7" , "dc.relation.FundingProgramme": "FP7" , "dc.relation.ProjectAcronym": "MORPH" , "dc.relation.ProjectAcronym": "EUROFLEETS2" , "dc.relation.ProjectAcronym": "COMAROB: ROBOTICA COOPERATIVA MARINA PARA EL MAPEO ACUSTICO Y LA INTERVENCION" }
