Scholarly Evenings at GMU – 9 April 2025
On 9 April 2025, GMU will hold another lecture as part of its Scholarly Evenings with Gdynia Maritime University.
The topic of this week’s popular science lecture will be "Autonomous vessels – still the future, or already the present?” Is an autonomous vessel, meaning one that is self-sufficient and independent, a futuristic vision of the future, or is it already a reality in maritime transport? Is the maritime sector ready to implement autonomous floating units from a technological and legal perspective? We will try to answer these and similar questions during the lecture, addressing topics such as control, journey planning, Human-Machine Interface, and anti-collision systems.
Where: main auditorium at the Faculty of Navigation (al. Jana Pawła II 3, Gdynia)
When: 18:00 on Wednesday 9 April.
Entry is free of charge and open to all (the lecture will be given in Polish only)
The Scholarly Evenings with Gdynia Maritime University initiative includes 20 lectures presented by experienced academic lecturers affiliated with GMU held on average twice a month (every second Wednesday at 18:00) at the University’s Faculty of Navigation.
