Denmark-based technology company ZeroNorth has joined forces with South Korea’s autonomous navigation systems venture Avikus, part of HD Hyundai, to work on a joint solution that marries autonomous navigation with real-time voyage optimization.
Per the partners, the contract was signed on June 4 at a maritime event held in Oslo, Norway. As disclosed, ZeroNorth and Avikus are to craft a ‘first-of-its-kind’ solution combining the former’s voyage and vessel optimization platform with the latter’s Level 2 autonomous navigation system, HiNAS.
