After two years pluswork with Intel, Rolls-Royce launched a new intelligent maritime awareness system.
The system works with AI and will be used as the eyes and ears of large ships, bringing them a step closer to autonomy, according with Kevin Daffey, director of Rolls-Royce in the technology section for navigation.
The Intelligent Sensing System (or Intelligent Awareness System) επεξεργάζεται αυτόματα δεδομένα από LIDAR, ραντάρ, θερμικές κάμερες, κάμερες HD, δορυφόρους και δελτία καιρού. Με όλα αυτά τα δεδομένα, ένα πλοίο θα μπορεί να αντιλαμβάνεται το περιβάλλον του, ανιχνεύοντας αντικείμενα αρκετά χιλιόμετρα μακριά.
All of this data will exceed one TB per day, as Daffey said. The data will be stored on the ship using Intel 3D NAND SSDs. The system will collect about one month's data on the ship before uploading it to the cloud.
Meanwhile, the system will uses Intel Xeon Scalable processors on board and machine learning.
After education of a system for several months on a Japanese passenger ship, Daffey said Rolls-Royce will make the autonomous technology available to all interested parties.
"The goal is to increase maritime safety," he said, noting that about 70% to 80% of accidents at sea are caused by human error.
