W.A.V.E.S will demonstrate the technical and economic feasibility of achieving zero-emission operations by an Offshore Service Vessel (OSV), designed for build by UK aluminium shipyards. The vessel will be flexible in its design approach, both for the types of operations as well as the fuel the vessel may carry onboard. This option allows the vessel to be...

Demeter uses energy-harvesting, intelligent, uncrewed vehicles to provide a persistent, infrastructure-independent subsea sensor data retrieval and analysis service. It is a compelling alternative to CAPEX-heavy fixed power and communication networks that would otherwise be required to support the widespread use of subsea sensors and systems for long-term...

"OSIRIS is a highly innovative robotic solution for the detailed inspection of offshore wind turbine blades. It alleviates the risks imposed on workers, who typically carry out this task manually under hazardous conditions. OSIRIS combines the best features of drones and climbing robots, without their notable limitations. Drones offer flexible stand-off i...

"OSIRIS is a highly innovative robotic solution for the inspection and maintenance of offshore structures, including wind turbines and oil rigs. It alleviates the risks imposed on workers, who typically carry out these tasks manually under hazardous conditions, and provides a step change in the capabilities currently provided by drones in this application...

Awaiting Public Project Summary

This project is developing a better language to support a new approach to the programming of complex software systems (distributed, hybrid systems requiring both discrete logic and continuous processing of parallel data streams). Applications include: the control software of an autonomous vehicle, which relies on a host of parallel, real-time sensor input...
