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.
