Event to take place at 'The Launchpad' in Douglas

Representatives from leading UK universities and businesses will be among those attending a major conference dealing with the topic of AI later this month.

The AI and Data Driven Maritime Innovation Conference will take place in Douglas at The Launchpad on Prospect Hill on 21 January.

A key presentation will focus on the ‘AI Passport’ project - a collaboration between the University of Strathclyde and Edinburgh-based firm Zelim Ltd, a UK-based maritime technology company specialising in AI powered safety, surveillance and rescue solutions at sea. 

 Zelim’s technology can automatically detect man overboard incidents, small craft and hazards in real time and support rapid, safer recovery without putting crews at additional risk.
