This disclosure describes monitoring and operating subsea well systems, such as to perform operations in the construction and control of targets in a subsea environment. A submersible ROV that performs operations in the construction and control of targets (e.g., well completion components) in a subsea environment, the ROV has one or more imaging devices that capture data that is processed to provide information that assists in the control and operations of the ROV and/or well completion system while the ROV is subsea.

Submersible remote operated vehicle vision assistance and control

A system receives data from a submersible remote operated vehicle (ROV), the data being about the operation of an arm of the ROV. The system automatically controls, based on the data, movement of the arm in docking the arm to a tool holder. In certain instances, the system implements an image based control. In certain instances, the system implements a force accommodation control. In certain instances, the system implements both.
