What you're looking at is a vision of the future:
你看到的是未来的景象：
A ship that needs only a few people on board to sail it, and that can be controlled from anywhere in the world.
这是一艘只需要几个人就能驾驶的船，并且可以在世界上任何地方对其进行控制。
The vessel's being put through its paces in a Norwegian fjords.
这艘船正在挪威的一个峡湾接受测试。
The company behind this, Ocean Infinity, are building a fleet of 23 of these.
其背后的公司“无限海洋”正在建造一支由23艘这样的船只组成的舰队。
"We fitted this vessel with extra sensors, extra servers, extra cabling, extra information systems. This is definitely going to be a revolution."
“我们为这艘船安装了额外的传感器、额外的服务器、额外的电缆和额外的信息系统。这绝对会是一场革命。”
This ship is 78m long, and usually a vessel like this would have a crew of 40 or 50 people.
这艘船只长达78米，通常这样的船会有40或50名船员。
But this is operating with just 16. Instead, some of the jobs are being carried out by a crew more than 700 miles away.

Eventually, even the captain could be here, in charge of multiple ships in oceans around the world.

This boat is being tested in Plymouth Sound, and its crew is in an office in Aberdeen.

The captain has precise control of the boat in real time.
船长可以实时精确地控制船只。
The technology is moving rapidly.

But experts say the regulations now need to catch up to make sure these new style vessels are safe at sea, because the next wave of shipping is already here.
但专家表示，现在的法规需要跟上，以确保这些新型船只在海上的安全，因为下一波航运已经到来。
