The USVs will approach the refuelling vessel, align to a connection mechanism, make the fuel and data connections, receive fuel and transfer data, disconnect and resume its mission. This sequence has to be fully automated. Cargo transport The Advanced Autonomous Waterborne Applications Initiative (AAWA) is a e 6.6m project from Tekes, the funding agency for technology and innovation in Finland, to produce the specifications and preliminary designs for the next generation of large autonomous ships for cargo and even passenger transport. It aims to produce a proof-of-concept vessel by the end of 2017. “The AAWA project is testing sensor arrays in a range of operating and climatic conditions in Finland, and The AAWA project is testing sensor arrays for autonomous operation on the Stella, a 65 m double-ended ferry operating in Finland
