Janus, Nexus and Current are pioneering in the autonomous shipping sector with their Nexus Janus Portal, a bespoke agnostic payload sensor integration management tool that they are showing at Autonomous Ship Expo 2024 (co-located with Electric & Hybrid Marine Expo Europe).
In this video, Current co-founder Jack Dougherty demonstrates how the portal works. The versatile system is ideal for unmanned systems in the defense, commercial and oil and gas sectors. He also highlights the system's compatibility with any hardware and its potential in security surveillance and target detection.
On the L3Harris stand at Autonomous Ship Expo 2024 (co-located with Electric & Hybrid Marine Expo Europe), James Cowles, the company's senior business development manager, talked to Electric & Hybrid Marine Technology International about innovations such as the C-Worker 15 USV as well as the crucial role of software integration in autonomous vessels and the need for fleet management solutions.
UK-based Navtech Radar is at Autonomous Ship Expo 2024 (co-located with Electric & Hybrid Marine Expo Europe) to talk about its high-resolution radar technology.
As the company's marine business development manager, Rachael O'Connor, explained to Electric & Hybrid Marine Technology International, this technology is crucial for autonomous vessel applications, as it can detect small objects, enhancing safety and collision avoidance.
Navtech offers different sensor sizes to suit various vessels and works with other companies for sensor fusion and software integration.
Andy Covey, marketing manager at underwater sonar specialist Wavefront, talked to Electric & Hybrid Marine Technology International at the company's booth at Autonomous Ship Expo 2024 (co-located with Electric & Hybrid Marine Expo Europe) about forward-looking sonar devices designed for navigation and obstacle avoidance. These devices are ideal for unmanned vessels measuring 12-15m and longer and for various markets including autonomous, superyacht, and defense.
Nigel Lee, chief strategy officer, is on the Robosys stand at Autonomous Ship Expo 2024 (co-located with Electric & Hybrid Marine Expo Europe) to talk about the company's software for autonomous navigation and vessel control, integrating sensors, creating paths and avoiding collisions. As Lee explained to Electric & Hybrid Marine Technology International, the software enables Degree 4 autonomy, allowing vessels to operate independently.
The company focuses on alternative fuels, electric propulsion and sensor integration and is involved in projects such as ACUA Ocean (a hydrogen-powered USV) and self-navigating software, contributing to the rapidly growing market for unmanned surface vessels.
