We're thrilled to announce that our latest research on risk mitigation for autonomous inland vessels is being presented at IFAC CAMS 2024, where global experts in marine systems, robotics, and vehicles come together. Our paper "A POMDP model-based online risk mitigation method for autonomous inland vessels" introduces a cutting-edge method based on a Partially Observable Markov Decision Process (POMDP) for real-time risk mitigation in autonomous surface vessels (ASVs). As ASVs become increasingly vital in the maritime industry, addressing risks from internal and external factors like traffic, weather, and faults is crucial. Unlike traditional methods, our approach considers both the vessel’s guidance and control systems, ensuring safer and more reliable operations.

Some say mothers and daughters can do just about anything. 😇 Our researchers say they can even solve traffic jams and make sure your goods reach the small ports. How? They say feeder loop services are the future of waterborne transport. 😊 https://lnkd.in/d9ySnZ8R Odd Erik Mørkrid, Espen Johansen Tangstad, Arne Fredheim, SEAMLESS Project, Trondheim Havn IKS, Bergen Havn, North Sea Container Line AS, Vegar Johansen

#ThrowbackThursday: “Welcome to my house! Enter freely. Go safely, and leave something of the happiness you bring!” According to Bram Stoker’s Dracula, we welcomed the SEAMLESS family last week for the third General Assembly meeting in #Duisburg. With the important and fruitful discussions around the #SEAMLESS project and its various work streams, several demonstrations of various DST research facilities and results, and an intriguing social program including a cruise dinner in the port of Duisburg and on the Rhine, it was truly a memorable and highly productive meeting. Despite (or maybe exactly because of) a packed agenda, we have - discovered the North Star, - scripted movies (several ones) and the project shanty (just one for the time being), - emptied some bottles (not what you think!), - deciphered hieroglyphs (or something alike), - worked on bright visions (figuratively), brown sheets and colored cards (literally), - played with robots (some successfully, some less so), and - saw numerous inland vessels (of course!) – small and big ones, automated, remotely operated, and manually steered ones. We have even optimized the logistics of Santa Clause! Moreover, we have discovered hidden talents for steering inland vessels, modeling for close-up shots, finding your way through a labyrinth disguised as a meeting venue, singing self-penned hits (!!), and educational evening entertainment. Dear SEAMLESS Project members, we would like to express our gratitude to each and every one of you for your visit and your contribution to the #SEAMLESS project meeting! Special thanks to Nikolaos P. Ventikos, Odd Erik Mørkrid, Jan-Christoph Maass, Jan Brand, Ingmar Müller, and especially Vassilis Podimatas for co-organizing all of this! 🙏 More information about the SEAMLESS project can be found here: www.seamless-project.eu Btw: We are truly speechless due to the multitude of positive reactions and remarks during and in the aftermath of the event. Therefore, let us reply deepheartedly: Hömma, dafür nich! 😉 📸 DST, ESI #dstduisburg #dst #smartshipping #automation #logistics #inlandwaterwaytransport #iwt #portlogistics #logistik #binnenschifffahrt #hafenlogistik #seamless #horizoneurope #innovation #maritime #inlandwaterways #autonomousshipping #portautomation

Autonomous ships, equipped with cutting-edge systems capable of making decisions independently, promise remarkable fuel and crew efficiencies. The Autoship H2020 project, led by Marco Molica Colella from CiaoTech - Gruppo PNO – PNO Group, has successfully demonstrated these innovations on two vessels, achieving key milestones towards #zeroemission #shipping. With comprehensive digital upgrades and successful pilots in short sea shipping and inland waterways, Autoship H2020 paved the way for a greener maritime future. Moving forward from the project’s achievements, next steps will include further refining autonomous shipping innovations, and increasing their application within the #maritime industry. To achieve this, new projects have been launched to build on Autoship H2020’s successes. One such EU-funded project, called SEAMLESS Project, will focus on enhancing autonomous shipping technologies such as remote control. Another EU-funded project, called ReNEW, will introduce an innovative autonomous barge, the ZULU X-barge, to demonstrate resilient inland water transport through digitisation.
