The vessel’s AI Captain processes data from various sources, including six AI-powered cameras, over 30 sensors, and 15 edge devices, enabling real-time decision-making and adherence to maritime laws. This system allows MAS to detect and avoid hazards, adapt to changing sea conditions, and conduct scientific experiments autonomously.
