The mission of SafeNav: to develop a next-generation collision-avoidance interface designed for both civilian and military bridges. Intuitive, AI-assisted, and inspired by the aviation sector’s TCAS (Traffic Collision Avoidance System), this solution aims to enhance situational awareness and decision-making in real-time.

Led by Captain Jorgen Grindevoll, founder of SafeNav, the project addresses a critical need — 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝟏,𝟎𝟎𝟎 𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐫𝐞𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐢𝐧 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟒 by the European Maritime Safety Agency, navigation safety remains a major concern. Despite existing international COLREGS, these rules are still often poorly applied, leading to avoidable accidents.

SafeNav brings a new approach to maritime safety by delivering a predictive and intelligent interface that supports bridge crews in high-traffic or low-visibility environments. By analyzing ship trajectories and behaviors, the system warns of potential risks before they escalate.

The project is supported by a robust European consortium of industrial, academic, and technological partners, including:

DNV, Offshore Monitoring Ltd, Global Maritime Services Ltd, imec, Danaos Shipping Co. Ltd, Ladar-AI Ltd, University of Rijeka, Faculty of Maritime Studies, NAVAL GROUP, Università degli Studi di Genova, SAYFR , SIREHNA, Turun yliopisto - University of Turku
