Hefring Marine and SeaBot Maritime showcase new partnership
Hefring Marine
and SeaBot Maritime have announced a strategic partnership aimed at advancing high-speed uncrewed surface vessel (USV) operator training through AI integration. The collaboration will incorporate Hefring Marine’s Intelligent Marine Assistance System (IMAS) – an AI-driven decision support system – into SeaBot Maritime’s training programs. IMAS enhances vessel safety and performance by making real-time throttle and speed adjustments, addressing the unique challenges posed by operating USVs at speeds over 25kts.
“We’re excited to be here to showcase our new partnership with SeaBot Maritime. Together, we’re advancing smarter, safer and more autonomous maritime operations. We’re here to connect with innovators, operators and anyone interested in the future of high-speed uncrewed vessels and intelligent control,” said Michael Given, head of sales at Hefring Marine.

Navtech Radar launches 77GHz FMCW maritime radar
Navtech Radar’s MAS10, developed with leading marine technology providers, is reportedly the world’s first 77GHz FMCW marine radar. Tailored for maritime autonomy, it ensures reliable, all-weather navigation and safer maneuvering in crowded waterways. Unlike optical and infrared sensors, the W-band radar cuts through fog, heavy rain and snow, providing clear detection in low-visibility conditions, including darkness and bright sunlight.
The rugged MAS10 withstands sea spray, mist, wind and turbulence, ensuring uninterrupted tracking. Designed for seamless integration into autonomous systems, it features open architecture, standardized APIs and comprehensive SDK support, enabling easy connectivity with navigation software and AI-driven vessel control systems. Its plug-and-play capability ensures minimal setup time, and robust data output formats allow for real-time processing.
“We’re pleased to be back at the expo for the third year running,” said Rachael O’Connor, business development manager at Navtech Radar. “Since the recent launch of our high-definition marine automation sensor, MAS10, we’ve been working with early adopters as they look to unlock safe navigation in congested waterways with W-band radar.”
