Uncrewed Surface Vessel (USV) - Coggle Diagram
Uncrewed Surface Vessel (USV)
Talk 1
Importance of staying Calm Under Pressure
HGIS's Manta Ray
Equipped with
Artificial Inteligence
IOT
Automation in Picking Paths
Microsystems
Has the ability to
Avoid obstacles in its path and create new paths
Be override by a human from a remote location
Ability to carry Payload (Surveying equipment)
Compact (Size of a car)
make its own intelligent paths using
Portable Intergrated Systems
Real time Route Planning
Good Maneuverability since no crew (180 degree turn in 30s)
Ability to perform in comparison with Conventional Boat
Mobilizes in 1hr rather than 2 Days
No risk of Fatigue or stops for toilets
Real time data transmission with radio rather than at the end of the day
5.3 Gallon CO2 emission compared to 18.5 Gallon CO2 emission
Can be moved to new areas faster and easier
39% time saving, takes 33% less resource with 71% less CO2 emmission
More suitable for confined space due to its size
Scalable in terms of size surveying
XOcean's USV
Equipped with
6.4kW Power and ability to carry 500kg payloads
Has control and real time operation
Solar panel and Diesel generator allowing for non-stop work for 22 Days
24/7 ability for remote pilot to take over
Many different sensor integration
ability for Launch & Recovery Vessel to bring it back
Advantages
Has a proven Track record of working
Provide opportunities for remote work
Small and low speed (4 knots)
Low acoustic causing lesser impact on marine life
Applications
Development, construction and maintenance of offshore wind Farms
Surveying Oil & Gas assets near the shore or under strong weather
Produce Hydrography for National safety purposes
Data Harvesting for coastal & landfall survey or usage of acoustic sensors to scan sea beds
Normalization of the usage of USV in Malaysia
Parties that are involved
Governmental parties MCMC, Navy, etc
Provide funding to develop local USVs
Provide proper laws and guidelines in relation with payloads, training, frequencies, etc
Provide professional help in the interest of National Security
Contractors
Talk to the government about creating Code of Practice for USV
Train workforce to be able to manage, handle and do maintenance on USV
Work towards commercialization of USV
Academia
Provide a Platform for researchers to develop/ improve aspects of USVs
Promote the development of legal frameworks for the operation of USV
Organise Competitions to identify and use the ideas of local talents
Issues and Challenges
No national standards for robotic R&D in Malaysia
Lacking of Funding
Poor collaboration with industry and academia
High cost of production and maintenance
High dependency on Manual labor
Grey laws governing surveying past 12 Nautical miles from the coast
Blue Ocean Strategy
Combining and sharing resources across industries
Achieving full hydrography of the world by 2030 with multibeam
Value initiation (improving technology & customer service)
cheaper
Enhanced technology
Manipulation of payload mass
higher safety
Lower carbon Footprint
Advantages
To map the Coast line for National security
Minimise Hazards to humans with no crews on board
Can be used in emergencies (MH370)
Help lower Oceanography & Deepwater survey prices
Live Data
Adopting safe usage of USVs
Regulation of Radio frequency and payloads
Ability to communicate with other vessels if needed
Developing protocols to surveying territories with overlapping claims from different country (security)
