🌊🚢 Exciting News in Marine Autonomy! 🚢🌊 Lloyd's Register (LR) and the KRISO(Korea Research Institute of Ships & Ocean Engineering) have recently announced a groundbreaking joint development project (JDP) to advance the verification and validation of marine autonomous systems! 🤝💡 This landmark collaboration aims to create a comprehensive testing environment for Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships (MASS), integrating cutting-edge technologies across hardware, software, and AI components. 🌐🔧📊 The goal? To ensure high standards of safety, reliability, and performance, paving the way for the widespread commercialization of autonomous maritime technologies. 🚀⚓ Andy McKeran from LR highlights the importance of this initiative: “Verification and validation are crucial for the safe and efficient commercialization of MASS. This JDP will help establish global standards for verification procedures.” 🗣️🌍 Keyyong Hong from KRISO adds: “Our collaboration will drive the development and standardization of autonomous ship technology, leading the maritime industry towards greater digitalization and innovation.” 🌟🚀 Stay tuned as this project evolves and potentially expands to include more global partners! 🌏🔍 #MarineAutonomy #LR #KRISO #MaritimeInnovation #AutonomousShips #TechCollaboration #MaritimeSafety #BunkeringNews #ShippingNews #MaritimeNews #BunkerMarket #SouthKorea #LloydsRegister https://lnkd.in/dRY3g7P7

Another example where if AOA is going to be part of the sensor solution, it has to be both, designed & maintained completely professionally;

Friday, high noon = time for the Maritime Innovation Updates MIU - just a quarter of an hour! Analysis, evaluation and outlook of the future market for autonomous maritime systems (AMS) - sounds exciting? This Friday, we will present the results of a market study commissioned by the #DMZ German Maritime Center and conducted by #BM Bergmann Marine GmbH together with #FraunhoferFKIE and #FraunhoferCML. The aim of the study was to identify various European and national players in the AMS sector through a market analysis and to describe the current market on the basis of an industry survey. Among other things, market entry barriers for companies were recorded in order to develop recommendations for action for politics, administration and business based on the survey results.

Full-scale testing of stabilized and aggregate surfaced landing zones with a load cart simulating C-130 aircraft traffic. These performance tests will be used to validate performance models and provide improved guidance for the design, construction and evaluation of unpaved landing zones! #erdc #LZ #stabilization

The sky’s the limit. ✈️ Led by Callen-Lenz, we helped enable an autonomous Unmanned Air Vehicle to operate safely Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) using automatic decision-making safety monitor software with mathematical proof of reliable and safe system behaviour. Proving safety-critical AI solutions exist without risks, D-RisQ looks forward to being involved in ground-breaking projects like BVLOS for UAS in future.

This year's 9th UK #Maritime #Autonomous Systems Regulatory Working Group Conference didn't disappoint and continues to set the standard in terms of content and quality of presenters. My presentation focused on the state of play of the US maritime autonomy #regulatory regime and the US Coast Guard, commercial market opportunities, and joined European panelists to discuss emerging trends in #surveys and #offshorewind, #JonesAct, #outerspace missions, international trade, and #defenseindustry applications. My sincere appreciation to James Fanshawe for his invitation and leadership on this topic. #internationallaw #levelplayingfield #internationaltrade #CFIUS #ITAR #BIS #space #marine #autonomousvehicles #autonomousystems #USCG #coastguard #investment #thoughtleadership #MASS #autonomousvessels

Fascinating and must read post from the Alabahma Department of Transport on the the use of drone technology and digital modelling to improve their infrastructure management capabilities and outcomes. I would fully echo the positive comments around working with Abraham, Russ and the gNext team. #AbrahamLama #RussEllis #gNext

Press a button And go to sleep. TTB will do the rest.   Unmanned production, up to an entire weekend, with zero scrap.   Find out more about the reliability of our machines: http://ttb-eng.com/ #TTBEngineering #TTBNext #UnmannedProduction #ContinuousProduction #GrindingMachine #SwissPrecision #SaackeGroup

Amidst the buzz surrounding the constantly evolving UAS industry, the necessity for an independent Enterprise UAS "evaluation/certification" organization becomes apparent. Key considerations include: Reliability Specification Compliance Integration Safety Record Flight Endurance Payload Capacity Maintenance Requirements Regulatory Compliance Data Security Measures Customer Support By considering these factors comprehensively, stakeholders can make informed decisions when investing in UAS technology for enterprise applications. I have often seen aircraft not live up to the marketing hype.
