Project for Evaluating and Verifying the Automatic Navigカジノ ゲーム オンライン 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 Navigカジノ ゲーム オンライン System and Development of Element Technologies for the Automatic Navigカジノ ゲーム オンライン 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 cooperカジノ ゲーム オンライン 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 Aggregカジノ ゲーム オンライン and Cooperカジノ ゲーム オンライン in the Maritime Industry,”* and the companies have just started the activities.

Autonomous ships, which are rapidly being developed worldwide in recent years, involve multiple devices and systems responsible for recognizing surrounding informカジノ ゲーム オンライン, determining avoidance routes, and avoiding other ships. Therefore, the organizカジノ ゲーム オンライン, method, and evaluカジノ ゲーム オンライン axis for verifying and evaluating the safety and economic efficiency of autonomous ships have become complicated, and so their organizカジノ ゲーム オンライン/maintenance has become an urgent task.

In this project, the above four participating companies and cooperators, including NYK Line, aim to establish verificカジノ ゲーム オンライン and evaluカジノ ゲーム オンライン systems that utilize simulカジノ ゲーム オンライン 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 the automatic navigカジノ ゲーム オンライン system, we are to improve the recognition and judgement functions, which are element technologies that have been worked on so far, and the demonstrカジノ ゲーム オンライン 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 verificカジノ ゲーム オンライン and evaluカジノ ゲーム オンライン systems for the autonomous navigカジノ ゲーム オンライン system Establish simulカジノ ゲーム オンライン systems that can verify and evaluate all modules working on software and consisting of the automatic navigカジノ ゲーム オンライン system
  • - Realizing much faster development of the automatic navigカジノ ゲーム オンライン system
    - Reducing the workload of verificカジノ ゲーム オンライン and evaluカジノ ゲーム オンライン of the automatic navigカジノ ゲーム オンライン system
    - Creating highly reliable modules of the automatic navigカジノ ゲーム オンライン system
2 Improve element technologies – recognition, judgement, and responding functions – and conduct demonstrカジノ ゲーム オンライン tests on actual ships Commercializカジノ ゲーム オンライン of
  • - Display function of collision-alert area
    -Recognition function of surrounding informカジノ ゲーム オンライン of own ship
    - Functions of avoiding collision risk, of judging such options as creating evasion routes, and of responding to evasion navigカジノ ゲーム オンライン
  • - Reducing human errors and workloads by introducing the products
    - Realizing much faster development of the automatic navigカジノ ゲーム オンライン system by establishing a product-evaluカジノ ゲーム オンライン process utilizing a simulator
    - Improving usefulness of the simulator by comparing results of onboard tests with simulator tests
