When cruise passengers imagine a relaxing voyage, they rarely think about the technology quietly working behind the scenes to keep them safe. But for Sam Mayall and Doug Lothian, the founders of Edinburgh, Scotland-based safety innovator Zelim, ensuring passenger safety is a full-time mission—one that’s rapidly evolving thanks to the company’s AI-powered man-overboard detection and tracking system, ZOE.
Recently installed aboard the cruise ship Ambition, ZOE faced its toughest test yet. For Zelim, adapting the system for use in the complex environment of a cruise ship presented both technical and operational hurdles.
“Technically, this was the first time we deployed so many cameras in a single environment,” said Mayall. While the software itself had been proven, the hardware required rigorous load and soak testing to ensure it could handle real-time processing of multiple video streams without failure. “We needed to be absolutely certain the system would remain robust under constant pressure,” he added.
