Unmanned Maritime Systems Technology

Memo

Leading navies have recently been increasing their investment in unmanned technology with programmes and platforms starting to emerge, so it has never been more crucial to explore the latest advances and opportunities in unmanned maritime systems and to align priorities between allied nations. Building the success of its three previous years, SMi Group's Unmanned Maritime Systems Technology Conference will return virtually this May to provide a crucial forum for the discussion of current and future projects and programmes delivering unmanned and autonomous technology for the naval unmanned systems community. Key reasons to attend: 1) Hear from senior naval officers from all over the world on the latest advancements in unmanned and autonomous technology. Nations speaking include: Australia, Denmark, France, Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, the UK, the USA, and more. 2) Listen to comprehensive briefings on anti-submarine warfare, mine countermeasures, autonomy, updates on key unmanned platform programmes, technological innovation, unmanned hydrography and oceanography, and many more. 3) Only event with a holistic focus on unmanned naval systems across the air, surface and undersea domains. Learn about the latest developments in unmanned underwater vehicles (UUVs), unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and unmanned surface vehicles (USVs), and the projects enhancing their operational capacities. 4) Hear industry presentations from key commercial partners on their latest products and technology including Leonardo, Navantia, Ocean Infinity, and more. 5) Meet and network with military and industry decision makers in unmanned systems, from Flag Officers to naval engineers and technical researchers
