Hyper Intelligence based Digital Helmsman for Autonomous Ship Navigation in Extreme Environmental Conditions.
UiT Autonomous Ship Program
The Four Key Pillars of the UiT Autonomous Ship Program: Human Helmsman, Digital Helmsman, Technology and Rules and Regulations and that will be evaluated under the UiT Bridge Simulator Environment, where human and AI, ie Digital Helmsman, interactions in relation to ship navigation will be further studied.
The same AI, ie Digital Helmsman, will be evaluated under the UiT Autonomous Test Vessel.
The instrumentation that has been invested in this project.
