  2. Autonomous cargo ship - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autonomous_cargo_ship

    Autonomous ships achieve autonomy by the use of technologies similarly found in autonomous cars and autopilots. Sensors provide data with the help of infrared and visual spectrum cameras supplemented by radar, sonar, lidar, GPS and AIS which will be able to supply data for navigational use. Other data such as meteorological data and deep-sea ...

  3. Unmanned surface vehicle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unmanned_surface_vehicle

    An emerging field of research examines whether the proliferation of unmanned surface vessels can impact crisis dynamics or intra-war escalation. An exploratory report on the subject from the Center for Naval Analyses suggests seven potential concerns for military competition, including accidental, deliberate, and inadvertent escalation.

  4. Air-independent propulsion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air-independent_propulsion

    Air-independent propulsion (AIP), or air-independent power, is any marine propulsion technology that allows a non-nuclear submarine to operate without access to atmospheric oxygen (by surfacing or using a snorkel). AIP can augment or replace the diesel-electric propulsion system of non-nuclear vessels.

  5. Autonomous underwater vehicle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autonomous_underwater_vehicle

    Most AUVs have what is considered navigational or event-based autonomy. They will follow a geographic mission plan with distinct events to operate sensors, change course or return to the surface. Some AUVs have adaptive autonomy, for example the ability to adjust course to avoid obstacles along the planned route.
