Sadly, “hard” dockings of manned ferries happening too often. Meantime, new battery operated ferries will require repeated docking onto charging stations. Do autonomous or semi-autonomous solutions offer answers to these situations? Speakers at this year’s FERRIES 2019 conference will include Michael Gordon Johnson, founder of Sea Machines Robotics, a Boston-based tech company that is already delivering autonomous control and intelligent perception systems for marine vessels.

FERRIES 2019 is being held November 5, 2019 – November 6, 2019 at the Renaissance Fort Lauderdale Cruise Port Hotel, Fort Lauderdale, Fla. More details HERE
