Current and Past Project

• Keeping the ocean transportation in safety has become a key issue nowadays because of the constant trend in decreasing the skilled crews and in soaring their payments, so that development of the supporting system or auto-navigating system for ship maneuvering are urgently needed. The main purpose of this project is to propose a new hybrid ocean transportation system, which combines a fully automatic navigation with a skilled human piloting to a high degree.
