Nurturing future maritime autonomy talent
An article by Dr Henry Robinson, CEO of Dynautics. For some years now, Dynautics has supported the development of future marine technologist talent by sponsoring and working hands-on with the Society of Maritime Industries’ (SMI) MAChallenge competition. The 2022-23 challenge was particularly rewarding, so I wanted to share some of my experiences from the finals, which took place in June
Controlling the future of maritime operations
As maritime stakeholders increasingly look to uncrewed vessel technology to complete a wider range of offshore survey, surveillance and inspection tasks, the systems that are used to control these flexible platforms are developing apace. Unmanned surface vessels (USVs) offer a low impact, non-invasive and cost-effective solution for an industry that has set itself ambitious net zero emission goals, and

The REAV-60 design from Exeter-based USV developer HydroSurv, named USV Decibel, successfully completed its first sea trials for Sonardyne at Smart Sound Plymouth in early May 2022, a key milestone for the project partners. For trusted and persistent
