Focusing on China's smart ships and looking forward to the future development path

Wu Sheng, academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and deputy chairman of the Expert Committee of the Alliance, hopes that the Alliance can stand at the height of the industry, give full play to the role of six aspects of intelligent ship direction demonstration, path planning, layout coordination, project suggestions, research guidance, application and promotion, and establish the development direction, technical route and scientific and reasonable industrial chain layout of China's intelligent ship. To provide guidance and guidance for the development of China's intelligent ship industry.

Yang Baohe, a Chinese ship design master and member of the expert committee of the Alliance, put forward three suggestions: First, pay attention to how to achieve benefits through intelligence in the shipping process, rather than pure technology improvement; The second is to pay attention to the collaborative management of the fleet, step by step to implement the intelligence; The third is to link the degree of intelligence with the characteristics and risk levels of the ship itself to truly achieve safety, efficiency and intelligence.

Lu Zhiyong, secretary general of the Alliance and president of the Ship Institute, said in his speech that under the promotion of the Alliance, the "smart ship 1.0 major research and development project" led by the ship Institute has successfully landed, and based on the research and development results of smart ship 1.0, relying on the alliance platform, the joint member units have comprehensively carried out the demonstration work of the next stage of smart ship research and development, and a preliminary technical plan has been formed. While vigorously developing smart ships, we will pay more attention to the development of key technologies. Under the support and guidance of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and China State Shipbuilding Group, the alliance will gather the wisdom and strength of the alliance members, and strive to achieve high-quality progress on the "long runway" of smart ship development, and build a Chinese brand of smart ships.

The meeting clarified the working idea of the next step of the alliance, that is, give full play to the role of industry think tanks to provide technical guidance and support for the development of the industry. Implement the main tasks of the alliance, and jointly carry out research on the future development trend of smart ship technology and industry. Carry out academic exchanges and discussions, rely on technical working groups, and cooperate extensively with other organizations in technical fields. Promote standardization work, formulate and publish group standards with the alliance as the main body, and declare relevant standards for smart ships.

The meeting informed the relevant resolutions of the Council of the Alliance, first, the change of the secretary general and the executive secretary of the Alliance, by the president of the boarding house Lu Zhiyong as the secretary general of the alliance, the vice president of the boarding House Li Lu as the executive secretary of the alliance; Second, Bureau Veritas Classification Society (China) Co., LTD., Asia Pacific Satellite Broadband Communications (Shenzhen) Co., LTD., Shanghai Zhangjiang (Group) Co., Ltd. are added as new members of the alliance. The third is the adjustment plan of the technical working group of the Alliance. At the same time, emphasis was placed on the research direction of each technical working group and the 2021 annual work plan.

Shipboard Institute, Shanghai Ship Transportation Research Institute of COSCO Shipping, China Classification Society, Dalian Shipbuilding Industry Group Co., LTD., a subsidiary of China Shipbuilding Group, and Beijing Hylanxin Data Technology Co., Ltd. were invited to make "Thinking on the Development Direction and Path of Intelligent Ship Technology", "Practice and Thinking on the development of Intelligent Shipping", "Latest Progress and Prospect of Intelligent Ship Specifications and Conventions" and "Intelligent Cargo. The keynote speech of "Intelligent Navigation Technology Practice and Future Development", focusing on the future development of China's intelligent ships, was warmly received by the participants.
