Workshop Lead – John Haynes
From working with maritime organisations
it is clear that safety is still a primary concern,
especially with emerging technologies. We need to
consider the new risks at sea, both real and perceived.
The new technologies that shape our future will arise
through collaborations between scientists, engineers
and industry. It is essential to include operators
and end-users in the design loop.
Practical safety needs to be front and centre
as innovative system designers are
pushing the boundaries and creating
a realm of new possibilities onboard.
