I was wondering if anyone has been working with any autonomy onboard or in testing, and would like to know what systems, in reference to communications, you are using and what latency are you achieving? Is it also for shore remote, or onboard?

Singapore is getting ready for the day when autonomous ships become a reality:

> [@](#):

> Wärtsilä Voyage will deliver the next generation navigational simulator for Singapore’s Centre of Excellence in Maritime Safety (CEMS) to prepare seafarers for shore-based remote management of vessels and autonomous ship operations. CEMS is a collaboration between the Singapore Maritime Institute (SMI) and Singapore Polytechnic, supported by the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore. The next generation simulation platform will be based on the Wärtsilä NTPRO (Navi-Trainer Professional 5000) Navigational Simulator in a shore-based operational configuration.
