OsloMet Oceanlab and OsloMet AI lab have purchased an Unmanned Surface Vessel (USV) to be used in several education, research, and science dissemination projects.

The USV is manufactured by Norwegian company Maritime Robotics, and can be highly customized to carry different sensor payloads and equipment. The USV is expected to be delivered end of August, and there are already several Master and European Semester Projects (EPS) working with it.

Get ready for lots of interesting things happening in Oslofjord!
