Aquatic Solutions Conference on electrical actuated underwater applications now open for registration

The Aquatic Solutions Conference (ASC) is an international, independent conference dedicated to advance the professional and scientific understanding of underwater solutions, focusing on electrical actuated units. By providing an independent platform, the ASC is able to generate a strong network where science and practice meet, to find real solutions for real challenges.

The conference combines both worlds by discussing actual situations and requirements, and taking a look into the future from both industries’ point of view as an academic point of view. By keeping a broad view on application areas, inspiration can be drawn from other work fields. Application areas of interest are:

- Offshore/Oil & Gas
- Environmental Research and Cleaning
- Inspection and Maintenance
- Search and Rescue
- Entertainment

This year, the Aquatic Solutions Conference will be held on May 21st in Rotterdam, alongside the Shell Eco-marathon. The conference provides academicians and industry professionals the opportunity to explore and discuss new ways for underwater challenges.

The program will start at 09:00 AM with a keynote from Mr. P. Kampmann of DFKI (The German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence) discussing "Mastering the deep-sea with pressure tolerant control electronics". The program continues with a.o. prof. dr. ir. Stefano Stramigioli's (University of Twente) talk about the future of robotics Inspection and dr. Johannes Lemburg (Alfred Wegener Institute) shares his experiences on developing the Benthic Crawler Tramper. maxon motor and DFKI maxon motor and DFKI join forces to enhance the state of technology in this field of application. Both industry and academia profit from a closer cooperation and exchange of experience and technology. Based on our expertise, maxon and DFKI decided to organize an independent platform to merge these groups and explore today's solutions and future possibilities.
