Success Story: AI algorithms and Sensor Integration for Robotic Vessels

Train the Trainer course on Friday 29 November 2024 (11:00-12:00 CEST).

Part 1 will provide an in-depth look into the maritime industry, covering its digitalisation market, application sectors and the benefits of AI in this industry. Moreover, this part of the course will discuss maritime industry trends and what the impacts of AI are.

Part 2 will present the success story of Mindchip OÜ, an Estonian deep-tech company that is revolutionising maritime navigation with an AI-based machine vision system for autonomous ships. Mindchip OÜ is focusing on making maritime industry cost-effective by developing autonomous self-adaptive captains that adjusts to different sea vessels. As Mindchip OÜ partnered with AIRE to develop their initiative the main challenge they encountered was integrating this system in order to allow reliable identification of other ships and buoys to ensure safer navigation. Accordingly, AIRE provided assistance in the form of test-before-invest services, AIRE networking events, training events, support to find funding and assistance to collaborate with other EDIHs. 

This services and support provided by AIRE have allowed the company to not only advance their product but also to take the next steps to bigger investments. Furthermore, these advances in developing AI-based machine vision systems set a precedent for sustainable, cos-effective and safer autonomous operations across global waters.
