Morild Interaktiv Maritime Training VR Simulation - Webinar

IMU Chennai recently hosted a forward-thinking webinar that captured the attention of both students and industry professionals. This event spotlighted two revolutionary technologies set to transform the maritime industry: Virtual Reality (VR) simulators for ship and bridge operations and Digital Twins for port infrastructure. A key moment of the webinar was the presentation by Olav-Rasmus Vorren, CEO of Morild Interaktiv, a global leader in maritime simulation technology. He demonstrated the capabilities of Morild Interaktiv's VR simulator systems, which are designed to train maritime professionals in critical areas like ship handling, bridge operations, and emergency protocols. These simulators offer an immersive 360-degree environment, allowing trainees to experience realistic scenarios, from navigating through challenging weather conditions to handling equipment failures, all in a risk-free setting. In addition to VR simulators, Olav-Rasmus also introduced the concept of Digital Twins, a revolutionary technology that involves creating digital replicas of physical assets, such as ports and infrastructure. These Digital Twins allow maritime professionals and engineers to monitor, simulate, and optimize operations in real time. By offering detailed insights into the performance and maintenance needs of port infrastructure, Digital Twins have the potential to streamline operations, enhance safety, and reduce costs, making them a game-changer for the maritime industry.

Congratulations to Dr. Yogamala.H.L Assistant Professor, IMU Kochi Campus for being Pre-selected as the National Legal Consultant for India under the IMO’ GloLitter Partnerships Project

Dr. Yogamala.H.L Assistant Professor, IMU Kochi Campus has been Pre-selected as the National Legal Consultant for India under the IMO’ GloLitter Partnerships Project with 30 other International Strategic Partners. The GloLitter Partnerships Project (GloLitter) is implemented by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), with initial funding from the Government of Norway via the Norwegian Agency for Development Cooperation (Norad). GloLitter is supporting 30 developing countries in reducing sea-based marine plastic litter (SBMPL) from the maritime transport and fisheries sectors, to reverse the negative environmental impacts of plastic discard and loss. The project strengthens government and port management institutional capacities in addressing marine plastic litter issues (MPL) and supports legal, policy and institutional reforms at the country level. The objective of GloLitter is therefore directed towards a sustainable implementation of the international regulatory framework and best practice for significant reduction of SBMPL in the shipping and fisheries sectors.
