# Automated Underwater Delivery Submarines This Submarine Concept Imagines Shipping in 2055 By Michael Hemsworth | Published 2018-11-30 | Autos Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/submarine-concept References: [yankodesign](http://www.yankodesign.com/2018/11/30/the-fedex-of-the-future-is-underwater/) The future of shipping and transportation will continue to shift tremendously in the coming years as we move towards autonomous solutions, so the Berliner Logistics submarine concept identifies what could be in store. Designed by Srijith Mohan, the submarine system works autonomously to assist with last-mile deliveries by picking up deliveries from cargo ships at sea rather than requiring them to make landfall. This could revolutionize the shipping experience by allowing for an enhanced level of efficiency for businesses who are seeking to further streamline protocols. The Berliner Logistics submarine concept was explained by Mohan as being a visualization of transportation in 2055 as coastal cities begin to vanish under rising sea levels, pushing cities further inland. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.4/10 - Popularity: 80% | Activity: 75% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Autos](https://www.trendhunter.com/autos) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Autonomous Underwater Delivery:** The use of automated underwater delivery can provide an efficient and streamlined last-mile delivery solution for businesses. - **Rising Sea Level Logistics:** The logistics industry can embrace the challenges brought by rising sea levels and create new opportunities for last-mile delivery solutions. - **Marine-based Transportation Solutions:** The development of marine-based transportation solutions can lead to a more sustainable, efficient, and cost-effective alternative to traditional land-based shipping and transportation. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Logistics:** The logistics industry can benefit from adopting autonomous underwater delivery for last-mile delivery and addressing challenges brought by rising sea levels. - **Maritime Transportation:** Maritime transportation can explore new opportunities for efficient and sustainable last-mile delivery solutions by leveraging the advancements in marine-based technology. - **Manufacturing:** Manufacturing companies can incorporate automated underwater delivery into their supply chain to enhance efficiency and streamline last-mile delivery processes. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Innovative Maritime Transportation Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/maritime-transportation-system.md) - [Interactive Autonomous Delivery Vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/robo-a2z-delivery-vehicle.md) - [Shapeshifting Delivery Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modular-mobility-system.md) - [Friendly Business Delivery Trucks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/autonomous-delivery-truck.md) - [Compartmentalized Robotic Delivery Vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/buzzy-bot.md) - [Manta Ray-Inspired Submarines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kronos-armored-submarine.md) - [Human-Robot Delivery Vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/seoyon-ehwa-automatic-sorting-system.md) - [Autonomous Undersea Vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/undersea-vehicle.md) - [Autonomous Amphibious Vehicle Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crosser-v1.md)
