Discover our Vessel Autonomy & Skipper Assistance Solutions

We increasingly rely on the seas for commerce, energy, leisure and security. Traffic density is ** increasing and operators are zeroing in on advances in efficiency, productivity and safety. Throughout history, mariners have benefited from advances in marine technology. Auto-pilot, electronic control systems, radar, GPS, AIS and accurate charting have all changed the way our work is done. Modern vessels continue to Aibecome more sophisticated. We’ve reached a point where highly capable ‘smart systems’ are reducing workload and assisting skippers. It’s revolutionising the way vessels are operated...

Autonomy means different things to different customers. At HamiltonJet we recognise there’s no single solution Instead, autonomy exists at different levels from skipper assistance to full autonomous remote operation. Skipper Assistance Tools assisting skippers to simplify tasks on board. • Station Keeping / virtual anchor. • Autopilot. • Precision manoeuvring. • Assisted situational awareness. • Dynamic positioning integration. • Firefighting assistance. Partial Autonomy Tools enabling skippers to hand-over some decision making to smart control systems while underway. • Docking assist. • ‘Smart’...

A PROVEN RECORD IN AUTONOMY AND SKIPPER ASSISTANCE First vessel radio remote control Autopilot and dynamic positioning interfaces launched First HamiltonJets used in an autonomous system First electronic control interface to an autonomous system Launch of JETanchor, our low cost dynamic positioning system First JETfighter commissioned to simplify firefighting and reduce skipper workload Launch of GPS assisted precision manoeuvrability

DRIVERS FOR CHANGE Autonomy and skipper assistance technologies have evolved to meet a variety of needs: 10.9m FFI Polarcirkel USV - NORWAY 35m SCDF Firefighting MRV - SINGAPORE Automation of seabed survey work 11m ARCIMS Mine Sweeping ASV Keeping crews and vessels safe • inimising crew M workload, fatigue and boredom. • ignificantly improving S vessel control, predictability, positional accuracy and precise manoeuvrability. • eeping crew away K from dangerous and dirty work (in some cases removing them from the boat entirely). 15m Dypvag Workboat - NORWAY Improving decisionmaking • iving skippers...

PLATFORMS UNDERPINNING THE FUTURE Our waterjets are the perfect platform for skipper assistance and autonomous technologies. They deliver end to end integration and interface simplicity. Hamilton Waterjets Ultimate manoeuvrability – jet boats turn on the spot, move sideways and perform rapid stops with ease - all without additional thrusters. Fluid thrust delivery – changes in thrust direction are delivered with fluid movements of the control surfaces. It means pin-point accurate Station Keeping without noisy gear changes wearing out transmissions over long periods. Superior durability – impellers...

TODAY’S SOLUTIONS nomous & Rem uto ntrol Interfa ote A o ce C This feature underpins our dominance in waterjet powered oil & gas crew boats where we maintain over 80% market share. It is also used in dive support vessels and fireboats. DPI is available for AVX* and MECS. - irtual Anchor: sets off a virtual anchor point V around which the boat will ‘swing’ with the prevailing conditions. In this mode the boat naturally settles into the most comfortable and fuel efficient heading. When JETanchor is selected with our latest AVX control system it can be used (with caution) in close proximity with...

- manoeuvre and dock safely and efficiently - create a safe and stable platform for work - improve vessel directional stability at low and high speed TOMORROW’S IDEAS_ Our mission is to continually optimise performance, efficiency and safety through innovation. With technology evolving at a rate of knots, we intend to exploit these advances to bring you products and solutions that improve your operation. We’re working on growing our control solutions to solve common problems in how to: - simplify route planning and following - detect potential collisions and avoid them ||- improve overall skipper...

CASE STUDY • A small team can disassemble the system Military / Patrol - ARCIMSfor redeployment. “ he autonomous minesweeper offers a commander T the ability to defeat mines that cannot be countered by current hunting techniques. It significantly reduces the risk to crew members in pressured and timeconstrained operations. The system offers greater flexibility and upgradability allowing the Royal Navy to respond better to the sea-mine threat in the long term and operate more effectively around the world.” Neal Lawson...

CASE STUDY Survey / Work Boats - TenSeventy "JETanchor is such a convenient system to have when undertaking survey work. It’s transformed my missions at sea and improved my business. I’m very happy with it. I wouldn’t build a boat without it. Alan Drinkrow, TenSeventy vessel owner. TenSeventy survey / crew boat in collaboration with Teknicraft Design and Q-West. This survey boat operates around the coastal areas of New Zealand’s North Island, travelling up to 60 nautical miles off-shore. Its primary function is hydrographic survey missions involving side-scan sonar readings taken over several...

CASE STUDY Fireboats – Singapore Civil Defence Force “ amiltonJet’s firefighting technology has completely H transformed the way fireboats respond to emergencies and made them much more effective. We would recommend this integrated technology to anyone commissioning us to build a fire boat.” Firefighting boat in collaboration with Penguin Shipyards. The Singapore Civil Defence Force launched two firefighting boats in 2018/19: Red Dolphin and Red Manta. These marine rescue and firefighting vessels are designed for fast response firefighting operations. High speed and flexible, these boats have...
