Unleashing Marine Robots for Good | AI FOR GOOD WEBINARS
0One of the Earth’s most valuable and greatest resources remains largely unexplored and under threat… this has begun to change. Autonomous underwater robots are already being deployed; performing subsea inspections and maintenance in the hydroelectric, aquaculture, oil and gas industries; monitoring pollution, tsunami, and seismicity activity; and contributing to ocean plastic and debris clean-ups.
However, the hostile and dynamic nature of the seas, extreme pressures, low temperatures, and unpredictable scenarios are only some of the challenges that hold us back from unlocking the potential of these intelligent machines.
This webinar provides an insight into recent advances and possible futures of underwater robots and how they can accelerate the revitalisation of our ocean’s health and improve conditions for sustainable use of marine resources.
Speakers:
Sean Halpin, Vice president of Products and Services, Houston Mechatronics
Richard Mills, Vice President of Marine Robotics Sales, Kongsberg Maritime
Sam Macdonald, CEO, Deep Trekker
Nina Mahmoudian, Associate Professor of Mechanical Engineering, Purdue University
Moderator:
James Bellingham, Executive Director, Johns Hopkins Institute for Assured Autonomy

What is AI for Good?
The AI for Good series is the leading action-oriented, global & inclusive United Nations platform on AI. The Summit is organized all year, always online, in Geneva by the ITU with XPRIZE Foundation in partnership with over 35 sister United Nations agencies, Switzerland and ACM. The goal is to identify practical applications of AI and scale those solutions for global impact.
