This paper articulates the opportunities but also unique challenges that autonomous systems present the marine industry. It describes and explores the experience of aerospace and automotive industries in developing increasingly autonomous assets. Resulting from the unique characteristics of systems that learn and adapt, it elaborates the different certification and regulatory challenges. In response it proposes a unique regulatory framework for autonomy based on the maturation of capabilities ¨C a licencing approach similar to how aspiring captains, airline pilots, doctors and similar professions are evaluated and monitored.
