SEA.AI has been awarded a multi-million european governmental contract which will deploy its AI-powered vision technology across autonomous vessels.

This is will aim to enhance both their safety and security for their use in the commercial and defense and security sectors.

SEA.AI’s machine vision systems detect, classify and track floating objects such as vessels, rafts, floating debris, and even people in the water—providing real-time hazard detection that fills the gap in the coverage of conventional radar and AIS systems. By integrating high-resolution optical sensors and computer vision algorithms, SEA.AI ensures safe navigation even in the most complex maritime situations. 

Marcus Warrelmann, CEO of SEA.AI, said; “With our machine vision technology, we’re pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in autonomous navigation. […] The company’s broad product portfolio, with a weight range from 700g to 4.5kg, is already being used on vessels across recreational, commercial, governmental and Search & Rescue fleets worldwide. This significant new partnership further solidifies SEA.AI’s position as a pioneer in maritime smart vision technology.”

Marcus Warrelmann said; “This achievement is a clear validation of the growing role AI plays in maritime safety & security, and we’re proud to be a leader in this exciting and rapidly expanding sector.”

“Our technology is designed to meet the evolving needs of this market,” Warrelmann added. “We are committed to continuous innovation, ensuring that SEA.AI remains at the forefront of maritime machine vision systems.”
