“The path to vessel intelligence systems will be traced in a presentation by Michael G. Johnson, founder of autonomous control and perception specialist Sea Machines, and ZF Marine engineering manager Drew Orvieto. They will explain how advances in digital computing, sensors, data analysis and data communication are giving rise to intelligent machines that can digitally perceive and measure complex situations – and ultimately lead to machines taking responsibility in those areas where humans tend to fail. The necessary operational performance would be achieved by deploying the machines where they can control multiple data streams to provide dynamic vessel control and better information to the commanding crew.”
