From mythology to technology In Nordic mythology, Munin is a raven of the god Odin. His name means " mind " in Norse and he is sent out every morning to fly around the world. In the evening, Munin returns safely to his master and delivers the information that he has gathered independently during the day. Like the raven, an unmanned vessel must act independently of its owner, but nevertheless must also deliver its cargo safely and reliably to its intended destination. The MUNIN research project was set up to develop and validate a concept and the required technology for this unmanned and autonomous vessel. While the name MUNIN references Odin's raven on the one hand, it is also an acronym for the project: Maritime Unmanned Navigation through Intelligence in Networks. Autonomy is within reach MUNIN's object of investigation is the " autonomous ship " , which, according to the European Waterborne Technology Platform, is described as a vessel with: " next generation modular control systems and communications technology that will enable wireless monitoring and control functions both on and off board. These will include advanced decision support systems to provide a capability to operate ships remotely under semi or fully autonomous control. " Existing ships are equipped with anti-collision, electronic positioning and satellite communication systems. New sensor systems, such as those based on infrared technology, are also becoming increasingly common. Much of the technology needed for autonomy is therefore already available.
