During the second half of the voyage, the ship was controlled by the autonomous navigation system HiNAS 2.0, which not only guided it but also calculated optimal routes and speed under the guidance of artificial intelligence Integrated Smartship Solution (ISS) developed by Hyundai. The system has managed to increase fuel efficiency by 7% and reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 5%.
