Roboat is a research program on autonomous floating systems in Amsterdam. The five-year program[when?] designs world's first fleet of autonomous vessels, focussing on moving people and goods, portable infrastructure and data gathering.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8] Roboat is a project from Amsterdam Institute for Advanced Metropolitan Solutions (AMS Institute). The research within the program is conducted by MIT, Delft University of Technology and Wageningen University and Research. The five-year program[when?] has a budget of €25 million, the prototypes are being tested in the canals of Amsterdam.[9][10][11]
