Through the 'Smarter Transport' project, the Møre og Romsdal county municipality, along with several collaboration partners, has laid a solid foundation for how we, in the future, can have autonomous vessels for passenger transport on the sea in urban areas.
Stockholm, June 8, 2023: MF Estelle was inaugurated and christened at Norr Mälarstrand in Stockholm, where the ferry line will start operating regularly. The ferry company Torghatten and the Norwegian technology company Zeabuz are behind the pioneering mobility concept in Stockholm.
AutoSafe will enable short distance and automated passenger transport on water by finding solutions to the fundamental problem of ensuring passenger safety with few or no crew onboard.
How can we build trust in complex and intelligent systems that enable autonomous mobility? This is the key research question behind DNV’s research project, “TRUSST” – Assuring Trustworthy, Safe and Sustainable Transport for All.
The objective of this thesis report is to establish a sound body of knowledge about real-time risk analysis, and to apply it to build a real-time risk analysis model for autonomous ships. For this purpose, the Sundbåten autonomous passenger ferry project which is currently under way is taken as a case-study. Here the mission is to develop a real-time risk model which is capable of warning the captain to take the ship’s control when its autonomous system is incapable to do so.
