Reading that more than 80% of goods are transported by sea, a light bulb went off, says Vollmer. “We can have a very huge impact,” he remembers thinking. The French engineers started tinkering with robotizing a small boat along with another friend, Antoine de Maleprade.
In the near term, it’s more likely that the helm will be controlled by an autonomous system or a remote human operator while a smaller crew takes care of the vessel. Transoceanic autonomous journeys will require rule-making by the International Maritime Organization, a process that could take through the middle of the next decade.
The tugboat market also has a good near-term business case for autonomy and remote control, says Levander. “There’s a very attractive payback time, crew costs are high,” he says. Rolls-Royce demonstrated remote control of a tugboat in Copenhagen in 2017 working with Svister, a tug operator owned by Maersk. A Boston-based startup called Sea Machines is also developing autonomous and remote-control systems for tugs, ferries and other workboats.
Microphones can pick up a ship’s horn and by algorithm the system can pinpoint its location. The system also add layers of intelligence, says Vollmer. “It can flag you should pay attention to this one ship because it has erratic behavior.”
Roboboat sees small vessel in it's path, roboboat checks navigation rules and sees it is following them and small vessel isn't, roboboat runs over small vessel.
So we can safely say; He who controls the waters, control the world. watchout!!!
