ACTUV Speed and Maneuverability Tests
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 жов 2024
- DARPA’s Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) Continuous Trail Unmanned Vessel (ACTUV) program has designed, developed and constructed an entirely new class of ocean-going vessel-one intended to traverse thousands of kilometers over the open seas for months at a time, all without a single crew member aboard.
The ACTUV technology demonstration vessel was recently transferred to water at its construction site in Portland, Ore., and conducted speed tests in which it reached a top speed of 27 knots (31 mph/50 kph). The vessel is scheduled to be christened on April 7, 2016, with open-water testing planned to begin in summer 2016 off the California coast.

Air: got it covered, seas: got it covered, land? "Hey, keep pushing that robot over until it gets pissed."
The pilot house is removable for autonomous operation. This video shows manned operation (look close).
If you find one of these unmanned, I would not suggest boarding, it might hurt.
At a cost of $23 million each, I doubt they are going to let this go without a fight.
Now that I think of it: autonomous boats could probably be easier to implement than self driving cars. Boats are generally slower than cars and there's less traffic on the water usually so there's less information to process and bigger margins for error compared to self driving cars.
+Razeel That's a little disingenuous to pilots. They still have to set, monitor, and tweak the autopilot, plot their course, predict the weather, etc. On the flipside, a growing number of airports are autoland capable (not that it's used frequently). Your pilot might not even be landing the plane.
You maybe right. But this topic includes fluid dynamics and also there are a lot of environmental disturbance, wave, wind, ocean current ext. that should not ignore
Development of the ACTUV was public knowledge as early as March 2013. This unmanned autonomous ship is now a reality. The Navy caught a Russian submarine off the eastern seaboard in Oct. 2012, certainly bolstering arguments in favor of anti-submarine technology. With 43 countries fielding submarines, it's getting tougher for the Navy to track the estimated 600 of them.
It looks so majestic 0:40
I'll bet she's very fast under flank speed. If I was forty years younger I'd sign up to be one of her crew. Thanks for sharing DARPA.
+William Stolley did you miss the autonomous part.
The local news has been reporting on the testing here in Portland. Pretty cool.
Если он потеряет сигнал управления, то к какому берегу пойдет?
Look at that Sleek wake and turning ability!😲😎👍
I hope it has some science equipment on it since we need to learn more about the oceans and I presume most of it's work would be patrolling.
Also, I would love to learn about it's capabilities from a tech curiosity- if that is possible.
Speed tests ? the front cabin design looks like it came from a paddle steamer.
Anyway why does an unmanned vessel need a front cabin ...
'
what kind of material on this ship hull and body
Cool trail, beautiful ship...
we would like to see how it handles ocean waves pls
+roidroid The outrigger design definitely can handles rough sea well.
EPIC.
Super.
Кабина для робота?=)
+Артур Родионов Кабина для испытателя. Уж слишком не дешевая штукуевина, чтобы так просто в море отпускать)
alexL2A ААААААА! Это как у путина хитрый план?!=)
+Артур Родионов Еще хитрее и коварнее. :-)=)
Wow!!! That ship alone can destroy all Russian Navy!!!!
I do not get it right , this drone was not to " not " have a crew , but the video deck this crowded people
+Ronaldo Luis maybe because they are testing it and want to observe it up close?
It's because it is in testing phase. The whole bridge, the windows and the manual controls will be removed before it is put out to sea for real. This is to prevent it from being hijacked. Right now, though, they have implemented manual controls because the ship hasn't been tested yet

You raised a question very critical . It was not clear to me how to avoid a pirate approach this equipment at sea, this very dangerous
Ronaldo Luis A pirate can do whatever he wants, he will not be able to do anything with this ship or its equipment. There will be no controls.
Innocent, is when we think that someone can not do something . If the equipment has already accepted a connection for local testing, can be pirated
There is international maritime law. Unmanned vessels are subject to the rights of salvage. And whose subs to we have to hunt anymore...did we lose track of one of ours?
No but we just lost track of some North Korean subs. And that's actually incredibly dangerous considering that they allegedly now have nuclear weapons. So what happens when one of those missing submarines pops up on the US coast with a fully functional nuclear warhead? Please try to think with the mental capacity of at least a 12 year old.
+Jeremiah Brand Politicians, not military commanders are the only ones who consider North Korea to be any kind of creditable threat to anyone but themselves. Check the data on the tests. Packing 4,000 tons of high explosives does not a fission bomb make. Pull your head out of your...Hollywood sense of reality. This is the real world.

skynet is smiling right now
+Alvaro M. Gómez Zúñiga HAAAA lolol
1000 of these sub hunters in the water will be awesome...
International maritime law: A person who recovers another person's ship or cargo after peril or loss at sea is entitled to a reward commensurate with the value of the property so saved.
Send such boats in the Black and Baltic seas, as near as possible to Russian borders. I would like to enter the ship (filming and crying aloud "It's in danger!"), bring it home, sell on e-bay military bowels and rebuild it to a nice yacht =))
+vnoockthebrain it probably has a self-destruct sequence for this case.
Artyom Kasumov "На пять замков запирай вороного - выкраду вместе с замками..." =)
Russians don't have anything that could catch this.
Fastest way to sink the Russian navy? Put it in water.
:).
Lawyers will argue that the ship is not "lost at sea" since they are still in control. The ship would probably just shoot you.
The ship would probably let any boarders know that it is the captain.
У него топлива не хватит найти АПЛ в трехмесячном плавании. Ошибка на этапе техзадания. Если конечно , Вы их не тысячу штук задумали. Ах да, он стоит 2-3 млрд долл?? ну тогда Вам надо взять кредит в банке "ТИн кофф" под 90процент, вот тогда точно ПЦ вашей экономике
Putin ,hello!
Putin is huilo!!!! Fuck that bastard!!!
Respekt
DARPA , no no and no, this is for military used
хлам
ага рассия хлам согласен
More crap to be hacked.
Nope, cannot happen with the fail safes in the system.
It doesn't need direct connection.
