Autonomous alliance

ONE SEA, the industry alliance bringing together leading exponents of autonomous ship technology, has added to its growing membership after signing up Awake.AI – a company led by an experienced team of maritime digital innovators. Awake.AI is aiming to create a new platform and machine learning models based on transparent data sharing to break down the barriers between ships, ports and others in the maritime logistics chain. The “virtual infrastructure” will be vital if ports are to handle autonomous ships successfully from pre-arrival, through cargo operations and to onward departure, according to the Finnish start-up.
