The Race Is On: Canadian Marine Technology
After nine years of development, iNav4U joins Australian marine technology specialist Vanti Technology and the crew of White Spirit for a three-race offshore challenge that will put intelligent navigation to the test.
The Most Important Work in Maritime AI Isn’t AI
AI is arriving quickly in marine technology. But intelligence is only as good as the information underneath it. Before boats can truly learn, predict and assist, their fragmented systems need a shared operational foundation that understands the vessel as a whole. You can add intelligence on top. You can’t skip what it stands on.
Real Boats Are Messy. Their Technology Shouldn’t Have to Be.
I had an interesting conversation this week that made me realize how differently people interpret the words “open architecture.”
