Unmanned surface vessel to enhance security of Polish ports and offshore wind farms

Hornet on Motlawa River
A team of researchers managed by Prof. Łukasz Kulas from Gdańsk University of Technology is working on an innovative, unmanned, new generation vessel - „Hornet”. It will be a first vessel of such type in Poland: with options of autonomous and semi-autonomous operation. Ultimately, the vessel can serve to inspect ship canals and offshore wind farms patrol – e.g. to detect objects which should not be present in a given area.

The vessel with its basic equipment is ready. Gdańsk Tech researchers are now working on solutions within the scope of edge and cloud technologies, applying artificial intelligence and machine learning. They plan to develop and implement a reliable wireless communication system (i.a. resistant to the signal blocker or jamming devices), for communication with numerous unmanned units simultaneously.
