This master’s project aims to design and test a prototype of a graphical user interface for a fleet of autonomous ferries for remote operators.
The unmanned autonomous ferry is based on the Shore Control Lab’s milliAmpere2 project; the design premises and design principles covered by the subject matter were defined by the author while carrying out the project.
The literature study defines the conceptual and technical aspects of autonomous vessels, and recognizes the challenges that need to be addressed in order to safely and efficiently perform remote monitoring.
Through design research, the project explores how the graphical user interface facilitates the operators to enhance situation awareness and expand human performance.
