Avikus, HD Hyundai’s specialized autonomous navigation technology subsidiary, announced yesterday that it signed a memorandum of understanding with Emerson to integrate its Neuboat Control autonomous system with Emerson’s Aventics controllers.
“Emerson’s commitment to the highest standards of reliability make their controllers perfect for integrating the Avikus Neuboat Control system,” Avikus CEO Do-Hyeong Lim said in a statement.
According to the terms of the agreement, Avikus will use Emerson’s open protocol for its Aventics controllers to integrate with the Neuboat Control system to provide such features as collision avoidance, adaptive cruise control and auto-docking. Following integration, Avikus will be completely compatible with Emerson’s Aventics controllers across all OEMs, dealers and customers.
