bet365 入金方法erifying the Automatic Navigation System and Developing Element Technologies Started

Toward Faster Development of Safer Autonomous Ships

MTI Co., Ltd.
Tokyo Keiki Inc.
Japan Marine Science Inc.
NYK Line
Furuno Electric Co., Ltd.

A technology development project on autonomous ships - Establishment of a Development Platform for an Automatic Navigation System and Development of Element Technologies for bet365 入金方法utomatic Navigation System - in which Tokyo Keiki Inc., Furuno Electric Co., Ltd., the NYK Group’s MTI Co., Ltd., and Japan Marine Science Inc. have participated, in cooperation with companies including NYK Line, was selected by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (MLIT) for the “2021 Support Project for R&D in Promoting Aggregation and Cooperation in the Maritime Industry,”* and the companies have just started bet365 入金方法ctivities.

Autonomous ships, which are rapidly being developed worldwide in recent years, involve multiple devices and systems responsible for recognizing surrounding information, determining avoidance routes, and avoiding other ships. Therefore, the organization, method, bet365 入金方法valuation axis for verifying bet365 入金方法valuating the safety bet365 入金方法conomic efficiency of autonomous ships have become complicated, and so their organization/maintenance has become an urgent task.

In this project, bet365 入金方法bove four participating companies and cooperators, including NYK Line, aim to establish verification and evaluation systems that utilize simulation technologies for enabling shipyards and maritime equipment manufacturers and such to promote the development of autonomous ships much faster. In addition, for improving safety of bet365 入金方法utomatic navigation system, we are to improve the recognition and judgement functions, which are element technologies that have been worked on so far, and the demonstration tests will also be conducted on actual ships.

1.Overview of the project

We will mainly conduct R&Ds for the following items.

Target of development Expected effect
1 Establish verification and evaluation systems for bet365 入金方法utonomous navigation system Establish simulation systems that can verify and evaluate all modules working on software and consisting of bet365 入金方法utomatic navigation system
  • - Realizing much faster development of bet365 入金方法utomatic navigation system
    - Reducing the workload of verification and evaluation of bet365 入金方法utomatic navigation system
    - Creating highly reliable modules of bet365 入金方法utomatic navigation system
2 Improve element technologies – recognition, judgement, and responding functions – and conduct demonstration tests on actual ships Commercialization of
  • - Display function of collision-alert area
    -Recognition function of surrounding information of own ship
    - Functions of avoiding collision risk, of judging such options as creating evasion routes, and of responding to evasion navigation
  • - Reducing human errors and workloads by introducing the products
    - Realizing much faster development of bet365 入金方法utomatic navigation system by establishing a product-evaluation process utilizing a simulator
    - Improving usefulness of the simulator by comparing results of onboard tests with simulator tests
