Artificial Intelligence Enhances Navigation Safety

Experts from the University of São Paulo (USP) will present the technology developed for naval simulations and risk analysis at the Ports & Coasts Brazil 2023 conference. Eduardo Aoun Tannuri and Marcelo Ramos Martins, experts in the field, will share information on the integrated approach to risk and real-time simulations.

The artificial intelligence (AI) used in these simulations allows for the prediction of ocean conditions and ensures greater safety in navigation. Simulations have been adopted by ship captains and pilots for years, but until the first decade of the 21st century, they were conducted in training centers outside Brazil. Since 2012, USP has had an advanced simulation center, as well as other centers of excellence across the country.

USP’s Naval Maneuver Simulation Center and the Partnership with Praticagem do Brasil

The Naval Maneuver Simulation Center at USP is well-established and has a partnership with Praticagem do Brasil for conducting studies, training, and risk analysis. The full mission simulators used have all the equipment of a modern ship and are powered by a database with information about all Brazilian ports.

Expertise of the Specialists and Investments in the Area

Investments in the area of simulation and risk analysis are significant, but the safety provided is worth it, as the studies integrate risk analysis with simulations. Eduardo Aoun Tannuri is a full professor in the Department of Mechatronic Engineering at USP’s Polytechnic School and coordinator of the Numerical Testing Tank Simulation Center (TPN-USP). He is an expert in simulation and analysis of DP systems and maneuvers and has extensive experience in the field.

Family without running water in the interior of Ceará takes out a loan to drill an artesian well and discovers possible oil, but cannot use it, cannot sell it, and is left with a debt of R$ 15,000.

On the Greek island of Ithaca, archaeologists have found what may be a sanctuary dedicated to the legendary Odysseus, with inscriptions bearing his name and votive offerings that span from the Mycenaean to the Hellenistic era.

Is a smart plug worth it in a regular home? What does it offer: turns on and off via smartphone, creates routines by schedule, prevents forgotten devices, sometimes monitors consumption, and improves habits without renovation or miracles.

Spain surprises the world by erecting 62 artificial dunes, mixing sand with natural remains of posidonia, and causing the structure to lose only 1.4% of its volume in 1 year.

Geographers redefine the Brazilian relief and confirm the presence of mountains in 14 states with a new system that changes historical criteria and alters the way the territory is classified.

There is a city in China right next to Hong Kong where people speak Portuguese, the streets have names in Portuguese, and the architecture looks like it came straight out of a historic city in Brazil.

An analysis by NASA highlighted that the Great Wall of China and the Pyramids of Egypt are not visible to the naked eye from the International Space Station, and only one man-made structure is visible in this way.

Brazil reaches historic record of judicial recoveries in 2025, with 2,466 companies in crisis and agribusiness leading the financial collapse.

In Peru, archaeologists opened a temple dating back about 3,000 years and found 14 bodies associated with human sacrifices. This discovery expands the timeline of Andean rituals and indicates organized practices long before the great empires of the region.

Frequently described by astronauts as one of the most improbable natural phenomena on Earth, the Okavango Delta spreads over up to 15,000 km² in the middle of the Kalahari Desert and transforms Botswana into a living maze of channels, islands, and floodplains that emerge and disappear every year.

From 13 borrowed cows to millions of liters per year: Argentine producer transforms small beginnings into an empire with technology, management, and high productivity of cows.

Archaeologists find giant Roman necropolis with 3,000 tombs hidden beneath the city, and the discovery could rewrite the history of Zadar.
