The list includes both delivery and research projects. The following lists key projects where KONGSBERG is strongly is involved. Overview of KONGSBERG systems suitable for autonomous ships.For safe operations, the systems collision avoidance capability ensures that the vehicle avoids obstacles in the sea detected by its proximity sensors. Our Autonomy Controller provides autonomous operation for most vessel that has an electrical interface to the engine and steering systems. Both areas utilise advanced sensor fusion and control algorithms to create a detailed 3D map of the operational area to secure safe autonomous operation. KONGSBERG can draw on 20 years of experience in providing autonomous underwater vehicles (about 600 systems delivered), and more than 50 years experience from a variety of missile programs. Since we manufacture very many of the systems required for autonomous operation ourselves, this strategy is now very useful in providing autonomous ship control systems our systems already communicate with each other and share information.īringing about a control system for autonomous ships is a complicated task. This has giving operators of our systems better overview and safer sailing.
KONGSBERG has been and is involved in many activities needed to bring about the coming of autonomous shipping.įor the more than 15 years we have worked to make our systems seamlessly integrate to provide THE FULL PICTURE. As the largest ship simulator manufacturer, we possess the ability to simulate and test all aspects of ship behaviour, communication and control. We were the first to deliver commercially available dynamic positioning systems some 40 years ago. We pioneered radar based collision avoidance, delivering our first system back in 1969. The following information documents why KONGSBERG is in a unique position to deliver autonomous control systems and supporting equipment: Control systems for autonomous ships
We can deliver systems in compliance with the maritime anti-collision regulations (COLREGS), utilising fusion of data from our dynamic positioning and navigation, satellite and position reference, marine automation and communication systems.
Our portfolio of products and the way they integrate with each other to provide THE FULL PICTURE, makes us well qualified to deliver control systems for autonomous ships.
