The Puglia Region, as component of the Program Contracts to sustain the research study as well as advancement of big business, has actually definitively authorized the “MARIN” Project (Integrated Remote Naval Environmental Monitoring), with a complete financial investment of over EUR 6 million on 3 years period.
The task recommends the theoretical interpretation of a multi-functional unmanned aquatic system, which incorporates as well as works with airborne as well as undersea drones in a seaside surveillance circumstance for ecological safety and security as well as littoral safety procedures, handled from another location, with a control terminal as well as the help of details choice support group. In this context, the making it possible for innovations will certainly be established as well as validated in the area with examinations mixed-up on aTechnological Demonstrator This demonstrator will certainly include a bundle of sensing units as well as ingenious control systems, accordingly launched on an existing marine system of concerning 20m in size, in order to permit remote surveillance as well as control from a driver terminal on the ground.
The task tasks will certainly occur in Lecce, with the sychronisation of SEASTEMA (business of the Fincantieri Group), the engagement of RINA Consulting as well asCo M.Media (PMI operating in ICT) in addition to the clinical cooperation of the University of Salento as well as Apphia (Innovative SME).
SEASTEMA will certainly make sure particularly of the growth of automated control reasonings, choice assistance as well as sensing unit information blend, needed to give the remote driver with total monitoring as well as situational understanding of the automobile. MARIN will certainly permit SEASTEMA to combine as well as more establish its technical abilities in the area of self-guided ships, with the possibility of producing in Lecce, many thanks to the assistance of the Puglia Region as well as various other companions, a facility of quality in among the maritime industries with the best development potential customers.
Alessandro Concialini, Chief Executive Officer of SEASTEMA, commented: “We strongly believe in the development of unmanned ships and we are particularly proud to put our experience and know-how at the service of such a challenging project, which can be the engine of a strong boost of industrial innovation in the area and beyond. It is thanks to initiatives of this kind that SEASTEMA will strengthen its technological leadership in a very competitive sector.”
