A shipmanager has entered into a strategic partnership with a technology provider to install digital watchkeepers on up to 750 vessels to enhance crew situational awareness
Anglo-Eastern has become the first major shipmanagement company to commit to retrofitting ships with a tool supported by artificial intelligence (AI) to improve situational awareness for bridge teams and lower collision risks.
Hong Kong-headquartered Anglo-Eastern Ship Management has formed a partnership with Orca AI to install AI-powered digital watchkeepers on more than 750 ships. These modules have cameras and software for identifying and tracking potential hazards at sea, even in low-visibility conditions, and provide this information to crew to help mitigate collision risks.
Orca AI’s platform includes SeaPod digital watchkeeper and FleetView, a shoreside monitoring tool that provides actionable insights for managing teams.
