Robosys’ Collaborative Ethos drives Pioneering Activity & Enhances Research
Robosys Automation attributes much of its success to its collaborative ethos. This spans Robosys supporting pioneering research with a prestigious British university, to welcoming business students from an American business academy, through to spearheading a project to deliver the world’s first mainstream digital training vessel concept.
STUDENT COHORT
Through Robosys Automation’s long-term partnering with a New England-based New Bedford Maritime Innovation, the partnership hosted a student delegation at Southampton’s National Oceanography Centre.
The cohort, from Massachusetts Maritime Academy, discovered key aspects of operating, and working with, international maritime businesses.
NEXT GENERATION MARITIME
As project lead, Robosys Automation devised an initiative with collaborators, Searegs Training and HydroSurv, to manufacture, integrate cutting edge software, and help curate a curriculum to support a new Digital Training Vessel specifically to springboard maritime workforce upskilling for the next generation.
UNDERWATER OBJECT DETECTION PROJECT
Robosys Automation and the UK’s University of Strathclyde‘s signed a Knowledge Exchange Agreement for a new project in Subsea Neuromorphic Object Detection uses neuromorphic sensing, which will test the sensing technology for underwater object detection using novel technologies.
The aim of the project is to develop the encoding mechanisms for multimodal data collected through neuromorphic sensors for underwater object detection.
COLLABORATION SECURES FUNDING FOR MARITIME AUTONOMY PROJECT
And finally, Robosys Automation, supported by USV manufacturer, ACUA Ocean, and Offshore Renewable Energy Catapult (OREC), jointly secured grant funding through Innovate UK for a specialist project exploring Collaborative Autonomy in USVs and ROVs across Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships (MASS) operations.
The Collaborative Automations for Subsea Intervention (C.A.S.I) project led by Robosys Automation aims to address a growing market need for improving operation and maintenance (O&M) and inspections of offshore assets with smarter, zero-emission, collaborative USV-ROV technologies.
