After about 60 years of CAD in shipbuilding, we are currently entering the 3rd generation of CAD software: The generation that leverages the power of Artificial Intelligence (AI).

MasterShip has already been working on AI for several years. This May 2020 we were rewarded with funding by RVO, for a feasibility study on Knowledge Based Engineering (KBE) of ship constructions.

We will prove that it is possible to use knowledge-based rules in MasterShip software that will automatically lead the user to the correct decisions during design. These knowledge-based rules are user-customizable.

This will be yet another distinct advantage of using our shipbuilding software. For example: A user attempts to make a hole in a watertight bulkhead. The software will stop him from doing so. Or when a hard point in the construction is detected, the software will point it out to the user.

This new development of AI will keep MasterShip software on the edge for the years to come.

If you would like to know more or are interested in joining us in this challenging new development, just call or email !
