HHI anticipates a system of aid to navigation in order to determine the best one broken and in order to prevent the collisions
It will be commercialized by 2016
July 23, 2014
The South Korean navalmeccanico group Hyundai Heavy Industries (HHI) has introduced today Hyundai Intelligent Collision Avoidance Support System (HiCASS), a system of aid to the navigation that allows to determine best broken the marine one and than to prevent the collisions characterizing automatically potential obstacles within a beam of 50 kilometers. Moreover the system affords to the ships to identify potential risks on the base of the type of the ship, of the meteorological conditions, the billowy motion and the wind. The HiCASS, used with systems as the Automatic Radar Plotting Aid (ARPA), the Automatic Identification System (AIS) and the Electronic Chart System (ECS) - it has specified HHI - allows to second analyze to the position of the obstacles previewed how much from the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea (COLREGS).
The South Korean group has tested last May the new system installing it on a portacontainer from 13.800 teu and employing it the next month on a ship for which liquified natural gas of the ability to 162.000 cubic metres. According to the forecasts, the commercialization of the HiCASS will be started in 2016 after ulterior tests.
