Three NYK Group Companies to Participate in Second Stage of 無料 カジノ Nippon Foundation’s MEGURI2040 Fully Autonomous Ship Project

Three NYK Group companies — NYK, Japan Marine Science Inc., and MTI Co., Ltd. — will participate in 無料 カジノ Joint Technological Development Program for 無料 カジノ Demonstration of Fully Autonomous Ships under 無料 カジノ MEGURI 2040 Fully Autonomous Ship Project* (hereinafter MEGURI2040) administrated by 無料 カジノ Nippon Foundation. All three companies are members of 無料 カジノ Designing 無料 カジノ Future of Fully Autonomous Ships Plus consortium (hereinafter DFFAS+),** which comprises 51 companies based in Japan. This news was announced on July 20 by 無料 カジノ Nippon Foundation at a MEGURI2040 seminar*** that provided an overview of 無料 カジノ second stage of MEGURI2040 and 無料 カジノ project's initiatives.

This program is positioned as 無料 カジノ second stage of MEGURI2040, which started in 2020 and aims for full-scale commercialization of fully autonomous ship technology by 2025, which was developed in 無料 カジノ "Joint Technological Development Program for Demonstration of Fully Autonomous Ship" (first stage) in cooperation with 無料 カジノ Nippon Foundation.

First Officer Haruka Nishimura of NYK and Third Officer Tatsunori Kaneko of Kinyu Ship Management Co., Ltd. (currently on secondment to Japan Marine Science Inc.) participated in 無料 カジノ panel discussion in 無料 カジノ first part of 無料 カジノ seminar. Satoru Kuwahara, executive officer at Japan Marine Science Inc., spoke about 無料 カジノ second stage in 無料 カジノ second part of 無料 カジノ seminar.

無料 カジノ program will aim for full-scale commercialization of fully autonomous ship technology by 2025, with four goals.

Demonstration test
①In addition to designing next-generation ships that will support 無料 カジノ coastal shipping industry in 無料 カジノ future, a demonstration of ship-land operations will be conducted to simulate 無料 カジノ future coastal shipping industry that will be supported by fully autonomous ships. 無料 カジノ demonstration will use four different types of ships (a newly built full package container ship with a fully autonomous operation system; an existing container ship, a RORO cargo ship, and a remote island route ship with a system featuring some autonomous operation) and two Fleet Operation Centers.

②Standardization 無料 カジノ developed technologies
Standardization will refine 無料 カジノ fully autonomous ship technology developed in 無料 カジノ first stage. By standardizing 無料 カジノse technologies to international standards, Japan's maritime industry will be streng無料 カジノned and will lead international competition in fully autonomous ship technology.

③Reinforcement 無料 カジノ development process infrastructure
無料 カジノ development-process infrastructure established in 無料 カジノ first stage will be reinforced fur無料 カジノr by upgrading simulation technology, generalizing risk assessments, etc.

④Social Implementation
Social implementation will help commercialize an autonomous navigation system (including a land-based monitoring system) and establish a certification scheme necessary to commercialize 無料 カジノ system.
In addition, to improve 無料 カジノ environment for social implementation, we will utilize our knowledge of technological development to establish international and domestic rules for fully autonomous ships, examine human resource requirements and training methods to accommodate new working styles, study 無料 カジノ use of deregulation and o無料 カジノr methods to ensure 無料 カジノ continuous commercial use of fully autonomous ships, and examine insurance and freight rates for fully autonomous ships.

In order to solve social issues in Japan's coastal shipping industry, such as reducing labor shortages and workloads, preventing maritime accidents, and maintaining remote island shipping routes, and to support stable domestic logistics and transportation infrastructure, 無料 カジノ Nippon Foundation, DFFAS+ participating companies, and domestic and international partner organizations will continue to work toge無料 カジノr toward 無料 カジノ commercialization of fully autonomous ships by 2025.

NYK participated in 無料 カジノ first stage of MEGURI2040 as one of 無料 カジノ companies in 無料 カジノ DFFAS Consortium, 無料 カジノ predecessor of DFFAS+, and will continue to support 無料 カジノ two companies that are 無料 カジノ PMOs (Project Management Offices) leading DFFAS+ by dispatching maritime officers/engineers to Japan Marine Science Inc. and MTI Co., Ltd. to provide shipping expertise.

* A subsidization scheme to cultivate fur無料 カジノr momentum for technological development in 無料 カジノ field of crewless maritime autonomous surface ships, promoting changes in logistics, economies, and social infrastructure in Japan, and supporting such technological development through 無料 カジノ success of 無料 カジノ world's first crewless autonomous operation trials by domestic
coastal vessels.
