10:15am - 10:30am | From Inland Rivers to Open Seas: Scaling Autnomous Navigation with 850,000 Kilometres of Data Autonomy in shipping promises efficiency and safety, but its true value lies in proven application across diverse scenarios. With over 850,000 kilometres of autonomous operation logged across more than 1,000 vessels in 120 water areas globally, ORCAUBOAT brings a wealth of real-world data to the table. This presentation introduces the ORCA-APAS, a full-stack, hardware-software integrated solution that delivers Level 4 equivalent autonomous driving functions for maritime vessels. We will showcase how this system seamlessly adapts from complex inland river environments to challenging offshore conditions, having recently shattered technological barriers by securing first offshore-grade certification from CCS. We will illustrate how this adaptable “autonomy brain” can be retrofitted for various vessel types, driving tangible outcomes in near-sea environmental remediation, smart ports, and next-generation maritime mobility. Join us to explore how data-driven autonomy is reshaping the economics and safety of the maritime industry.
