Technology using Fujitsu’s Zinrai AI system was ready to detect near misses between ships and also predict areas of high collision risk int he Tokyo Bay area. the corporate added this tech to Vessel Traffic Services systems employed by port control authorities, allowing them to raised manage the movement of ships through port.
Fujitsu says that using the technology means port operators can identify potential collisions two minutes faster than conventional systems. What’s more, the system enables more accurate and consistent operation no matter the controllers’ experience, increasing maritime safety.
The AI-powered system also issued nearly twice the amount of warnings to ship captains on risk-prone vessels. Port authorities believe this has enhanced maritime safety.
Japanese port authorities say there are over 280 maritime collisions annually , all of which have a play effect to provide chains, crew safety, and therefore the environment.
Minimizing maritime collisions isn’t easy, but Fujitsu’s system certainly looks like it’s taking a step within the right direction.
Japanese port authorities are now getting to still develop and implement this technology.
