Marine technology

[2] As far as marine technician programs are concerned, students learn hands-on to trouble shoot, service and repair four- and two-stroke outboards, stern drive, rigging, fuel & lube systems, electrical including diesel engines.

The Executive Office of Housing and Economic Development (EOHED) of the government of Massachusetts in the United States defined marine science and technology industry as any business that deals primarily with or relates to the sea.

[5] Artificial Intelligence (AI) and machine learning are leading the wave of innovation in the maritime sector, offering advanced solutions for predictive maintenance, voyage optimization, and autonomous decision-making processes.

The Internet of Things (IoT) technology fosters enhanced connectivity within shipboard systems through an extensive network of sensors, facilitating real-time monitoring and analytical data processing.

By establishing an immutable transaction ledger, blockchain ensures the integrity of cargo documentation and enables the execution of smart contracts, thereby streamlining maritime logistics operations with unprecedented reliability and efficiency.

By superimposing digital data onto the real-world environment, AR provides immediate navigational assistance, identifies potential hazards, and offers immersive training scenarios, thereby enhancing crew preparedness and operational safety.
