The full-size, fully autonomous research vessel MAS was created through a collaboration between the non-profit maritime research organization Promare and IBM, a global consortium of partners and scientific organizations, and is set to explore the seas in the next six months.
MAS will travel to Plymouth, Massachusetts by self-navigation using intelligent airborne technology.
The AI captain will independently make a decision on each movement, since he is trained on images of those things that he may collide with at sea (seagulls, boats, icebergs, etc.) ..
On the subject: Artificial intelligence will diagnose COVID-19 by the sound of a voice
Andy Stanford-Clark, CTO at IBM UK, explained that AI recognizes what to avoid, including both physical obstacles and potentially hazardous weather.
The ship is also equipped with a system that determines whether the course offered by the AI is legal.
During its journey, MAS will use on-board data collection equipment to advance research on plastic pollution and global warming. Without a crew on board, an entire ship can be devoted to science.
MAS will follow the route of the original Mayflower from 1620 to commemorate 400 years of the legendary voyage.
