5 Autonomous Maritime Ships | Future USVs

The pursuit of autonomous vessels is already leading to smarter systems that can enhance the safety, cost-efficiency and environmental performance of today’s vessels; in practice, this means things like reducing collisions or incidents-especially in busy ports-assisting with docking, saving fuel through optimised speed profiles and reducing associated emissions.

▶1. AURORA
Delivery of rescue equipment to a person in distress on the water in normal and adverse climatic conditions.
The liferaft can normally be placed on the beam holder of the Mi-8 helicopter, on the specialized holder of the Ka-226 and Ansat helicopters. It can be installed on board any vessel or marine platform by means of a specialized bed. The use of rails allows dropping the liferaft with hands on water from bridges, piers or banks.
The robotized inflatable liferaft is designed to operate in the following modes:
- self-contained, fully automatic mode of search for a person in distress
- manual, working from an air or ground based remote control

▶ 2. Saildrone
Saildrone uncrewed surface vehicles (USVs) are the most capable, proven, and trusted platforms available for the collection of high-quality ocean data for a wide variety of applications.
Saildrone USVs combine wind-powered propulsion technology and solar-powered meteorological and oceanographic sensors to perform autonomous long-range data collection missions in the harshest ocean environments.
The maritime security variants of the vehicles also include an advanced acoustic and camera system that, combined with our proprietary onboard machine learning algorithm, fuses sensor data to deliver significantly expanded information and decision advantage 24/7.

▶ 3. Yara Birkeland
The MV Yara Birkeland is an autonomous 120 TEU container ship that is under construction and due to be launched in 2021. At the time of project initiation, the Yara Birkeland project was designed to create the first fully autonomous logistics concept in the world.
● Length: 80 m
● Draft: 5 m

▶ 4. Mayflower
The culmination of a multi-year project with IBM and marine research non-profit ProMare.
The maritime research vessel Mayflower Autonomous Ship is a first-of its-kind autonomous ship - and IBM technology played a central role in bringing it to life. On its inaugural journey, the ship will commemorate the original Mayflower by following its transatlantic route. But this modern Mayflower will gather critical ocean data on the impact of climate change and pollution so that marine researchers can better understand and protect our oceans - now and into the future.
IBM and ProMare co-engineered the software for the crewless ship with three layers of technology: sensory inputs, real-time machine learning and analytics, and a decision engine. IBM and ProMare experts used petabytes of data to train machine learning models and wrote rules-based decisioning for the decision engine, enabling the ship to react to an often-treacherous ocean environment - with zero human intervention. It adheres to maritime law while making crucial split-second decisions. It reroutes itself around harsh weather environments. It collects and analyzes massive amounts of ocean data. And it does it all 24/7.

▶ 5. CAPTN Vaiaro
Autonomous Electric Ferry for The Future of Public Water Transport.
Mobility and transportation are rapidly changing to become greener in an effort to reduce carbon emissions. From electric cars to sustainable
yachts, talented teams are working in every transport category to provide a better alternative.
One such project is the CAPTN Vaiaro which proposes two autonomous electric ferry concepts that offer a glimpse into the future of the industry. The team of designers developed CAPTN under the coordination of Kiel University in Germany because the concept was designed keeping the port city of Kiel in mind.
DESIGNER : Simeon Ortmüller, Vincent Steinhart-Besser, Yigang Shen, Jingyue Chen, and Tobias Gehrke
