EN In recent years there has been an intensification of work on the autonomy of means of transport. This also applies to ships. Modern ships are already equipped with crew decision support systems and numerous diagnostic systems. More and more systems installed on ships can operate without human integration. This situation leads to the development and use of even fully autonomous ships. The overview publication briefly describes the main features of the construction and operation of autonomous ships, including some examples of structures already demonstrated in recent years. Summing up, the author presents his comments which are a contribution to the discussion on the autonomy of means of maritime transport.
