The autonomous inland vessel has the potential to enable a modality shift to the waterway, however economically-conscious solutions to the technological challenges are lacking. This paper explores the potential role of stereovision technology as a primary sensor set within the application of autonomous inland vessels. The design of a multi-camera navigation system for mid-range perception and localisation tasks is presented with a view to providing sufficient data for collision avoidance tasks. The performance of these sensors in the application is evaluated with experimental testing using small-scale vessels in an indoor tank, demonstrating their capabilities and limitations for consideration in ongoing research. 000010708 542__ $$fCC-BY 000010708 6531_ $$aAutonomous Surface Vehicle 000010708 6531_ $$aRobot Navigation 000010708 6531_ $$aProgramming and Vision 000010708 6531_ $$aNeural Networks 000010708 6531_ $$aMulti Sensor Systems 000010708 6531_ $$aPerception 000010708 7001_ $$aHepworth, M$$uDelft University of Technology 000010708 7001_ $$aGarofano, V$$uDelft University of Technology 000010708 7001_ $$aPang, Y$$uDelft University of Technology 000010708 7001_ $$aReppa, V$$uDelft University of Technology 000010708 773__ $$tConference Proceedings of iSCSS 000010708 773__ $$jiSCSS 2022 000010708 85641 $$uhttps://www.imarest.org/events/category/categories/imarest-event/international-ship-control-systems-symposium-2022$$yConference website 000010708 8564_ $$989e91ebf-6fd5-4be3-b554-8b9d92515730$$s10779216$$uhttps://library.imarest.org/record/10708/files/10708.pdf 000010708 980__ $$aConference Proceedings
