Zukunftsfeld digitale Unterwassertechnologie: Was sie braucht, was sie leistet und wo sie zum Einsatz kommt

Aufgrund der aktuellen Situation und damit einhergehenden Reisebeschränkungen haben wir uns schweren Herzens entschlossen, die 2. DIGITAL OCEAN CONVENTION Rostock auf das Jahr 2021 zu verschieben. Sicherheit und Gesundheit gehen vor! Bitte merken Sie sich bereits heute den neuen Termin vor:

2. DIGITAL OCEAN CONVENTION Rostock

25.-26. August 2021

Wir hoffen, im nächsten Jahr das geplante Programm größtenteils unverändert durchführen zu können – wir stehen im Kontakt zu Ausstellern und Partnern. Networking und gegenseitiger Austausch sollen wieder eine zentrale Rolle spielen.

Doch auch in diesem Jahr möchten wir Ihnen einen kurzen Einblick in die aktuellen Herausforderungen der Branche geben, gerade im Hinblick auf die aktuelle Situation. Wie geht es in naher Zukunft für die Unterwassertechnologie weiter? Wie können wir uns gegenseitig unterstützen und voneinander lernen? Wir freuen uns, dass wir zusammen mit unseren internationalen Partnern eine öffentliche Web-Session durchführen werden, zu der wir Sie hiermit herzlich einladen.

Teaser-Event 2. DIGITAL OCEAN CONVENTION

Web-Session »Through the crisis together – the strength of innovative ecosystems and international cooperation«

Germany, Norway, Canada

4. November 2020 – 14.00-16.00 Uhr, MEZ

Details zu den Referenten sowie die Einwahldaten zu der kostenfreien Web-Session erhalten Sie in Kürze. Weitere Informationen finden Sie auf www.otc-rostock.com.

Nach einem erfolgreichen Auftakt 2019 lädt die DIGITAL OCEAN CONVENTION auch 2021 nach Rostock ein! An zwei Tagen diskutieren Teilnehmer aus Wirtschaft, Wissenschaft und Politik über aktuelle Entwicklungen und Trends in der technologischen Unterwasserforschung. Am ersten Tag freuen wir uns auf Podiumsrunden und Keynotes und beleuchten die Fragen des notwendigen politischen Rahmens für impulssetzende Forschung und die Chancen eines interdisziplinären Technologiecampus‘. Der zweite Tag bietet tiefere Einblicke in verschiedene Technologiefelder wie beispielsweise UXO oder Offshore-Instandsetzung.

Freuen Sie sich auf eine spannende Tagung mit viel Input und Möglichkeiten zum Netzwerken. Eine begleitende Ausstellung präsentiert aktuelle Produkte und Entwicklungen der digitalen Unterwassertechnologie.

Asgeir J. Sørensen

Autonomous marine operations and systems enable new business potentials in the blue economy in maritime transport, offshore oil and gas, fisheries and aquaculture, marine mining, offshore wind, tourism, coastal infrastructure and ocean science. A holistic and sustainable approach addressing global challenges (e.g. energy, food, biodiversity, logistics, etc) and knowledge-based governance is a must for long-term value creation. The presentation will address recent research and innovation achievements on autonomous vehicles and robots operating under water, on the sea surface, in air and space for high-precision and safety-critical operations in harsh environments.
