Case Study
USV for Collision Avoidance
Challenge
- Detect nearby ships in order to avoid collisions;
- Establish security distances and warn operators when breaches occur.
Solution
- Development of a GIS application to aid USV operators detecting possibilities for collisions;
- Ship and distances graphical visualization;
- Minimum distances settings and operator alerts in case of security breaches ;
- Integration of camera imagery and radar information - short distance and long distance detection.
Benefit
- Software platform that integrates all available sensor information to allow autonomous decision making and operator decision support;
- Integrated solution that enables specific reconnaissance or search and rescue missions using unmanned surface vehicles;
- Decrease of the risk factor in missions where the human cost can be eliminated.
