• Defining Ship Autonomy by Characteristic Factors 

      Rødseth, Ørnulf Jan (SINTEF Proceedings;3, Chapter; Peer reviewed; Conference object, 2019)
      Several papers have proposed ways to define levels of autonomy (LOA), i.e. how responsibility is shared between an automation system and a human when the automation system to some degree can operate independently of the ...
    • Hull-to-Hull Concept Supporting Autonomous Navigation 

      Berge, Svein P.; Hagaseth, Marianne; Kvam, Per Erik; Rinnan, Arne (SINTEF Proceedings;3, Research report; Conference object; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      This paper presents the hull-to-hull (H2H) project where the concept of hull to hull positioning and uncertainty zones are used to assist navigators and operators to perform safe navigation of objects in proximity to each ...
    • Human Factors Issues in Maritime Autonomous Surface Ship Systems Development 

      Karvonen, Hannu; Martio, Jussi (SINTEF Proceedings;3, Chapter; Conference object; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      The human side of highly automated maritime systems can often be neglected in their development. Paradoxically, history and scientific studies have shown that with highly automated systems, there is still a crucial need ...
    • Interaction Between Manned and Autonomous Ships: Automation Transparency 

      Porathe, Thomas (SINTEF Proceedings;3, Chapter; Conference object; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships (MASS) is on the research agenda of several countries. In Norway a 120 TEU autonomous container feeder is currently being built. Hopes are attached to safety as well as costs and efficiency ...
    • Mass Technology Development by Means of Ship Handling Simulation 

      Burmeister, Hans-Christoph; Lee, Ah-Ram; Oeffner, Johannes; Shetty, Srikanth; Walther, Laura (SINTEF Proceedings;3, Chapter; Conference object; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      This paper will stress the importance of Ship Handling Simulation (SHS)-based Maritime Autonomous Surface Ship (MASS) prototype development and aligns it with the IMO Guidelines on Software Quality Assurance and Humancentered ...
    • Outlook for Navigation - Comparing Human Performance with a Robotic Solution 

      Blanke, M.; Hansen, S.; Stets, J.D.; Koester, T.; Brøsted, J.E.; Llopart Maurin, A.; Nykvist, N.; Bang, J. (SINTEF Proceedings;3, Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      Considering whether a temporarily unattended bridge could be allowed, Maritime Authorities wish to investigate whether sensor technology is available that, when seconded by sophisticated computer algorithms, is able to ...
