Autonomous Systems

Making transportation easier

In the second decade of 21 st century, the advances in computer vision happened through the invention of deep learning neural networks. Its impact on object recognition and 3D depth estimation by improving the accuracy made possible myriad fully autonomous systems. Majority of engineering talent and investment in silicon valley is focused in autonomous car and trucks segment. We at Savtoa thinks some of the advances made by companies in these areas can be leveraged to build autonomous systems in an equally important area “the sea”. 

Ninety per cent of worlds trade go through sea. Autonomous ships with no or minimal human intervention will bring in a new era in cargo shipping with lower cost (40% reduction from crew expense), lesser accidents( 70-80% accidents in the sea are due to human error), more capacity ( due to absence of living space), better fuel efficiency and lower pollution.
