Many operations performed by work class Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs) require the manipulation of heavy loads. An example is the manipulation and grouting of armour stones. A way to increase the working capabilities of the ROV is to introduce cables among the set of actuators. The cable lengths and tensions are controlled by winches placed on the vehicle. Being similar to a cable-driven parall...
