The Automation and Maritime Simulation (AMS) Laboratory provides a research environment where researchers, educators, and industry partners can safely explore, test, and prototype emerging technologies. Our research lies at the intersection of automation, simulation, and AI applications, with a focus on shipbuilding and maritime technology.
Intelligent Systems and Simulations
Conceptualization
We help organizations become AI-ready by structuring their data and documents into knowledge bases, making information readily accessible for future intelligent systems. Our combined expertise spans the design of automation systems, simulation, data science, and applied artificial intelligence. This enables us to address current challenges in automated testing, model-based design, and virtual commissioning.
Our goal is to make the laboratory a leading hub for innovation in ship design and shipbuilding.
We are here to provide you R&D expertise so you can focus on business
