MARII is a platform that studies how humans and AI agents in maritime environments work together under pressure.
Operators command a fleet of vessels using hand gestures and voice, on a screen.
Behind the scenes, an AI orchestrator interprets human intent in real time and decides how much control to hand back.
By measuring cognitive load and response times across rescue, resource-allocation, and crisis scenarios, MARII asks one question:
When the stakes are high at sea who should be in charge? The human, the machine, or the space between them?
Point at a vessel to select it.
Draw a route on the table to set its path.
Speak a command — the AI listens and acts.
Circle a group to select multiple vessels at once.
No keyboard. No mouse. Just hands and voice on the table.
