Autonomous Sailing Boats
An online event, Anahita Laverack will talk about how these vehicles can endure multi-month missions, and how their compact size makes deployment straightforward: a ten-strong constellation of C-Stars can be launched from a small fishing vessel. These robots allow users to harness the power of mass-deployed ocean sensor networks to unlock breakthrough insights in climate and weather research, industry operations, and marine domain awareness.

The energy systems are becoming increasingly sophisticated, requiring innovative approaches and powerful tools to enhance their management and operation. Artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a game-changer in the energy sector in this regard.
