Omschrijving

Unmanned systems have recently become a hype. Following the extremely dynamic developments in the automotive industry, the maritime industry is preparing for a future where human presence is no longer required in the logistical chains or on board of ships. The advocates of these developments promise great opportunities and talk of ‘smart ports’, ‘smart cities’, ‘smart vessels’ and a lot of other smart things where ‘Big Data’, ‘Deep Learning’ and the ‘Internet of Things’ are driving a strong technology push in this direction. There are also more critical voices, which stress the threats to job security and safety, and even warn against the consequences of robot supremacy.
