Wärtsilä has launched SmartPredict technology to increase safety of ship operations and make vessel manoeuvring more efficient by reducing risk.
- System predicts motion using algorithms to evaluate forces affecting the vessel and displays vessel’s predicted future position and heading.
- System evaluates and constantly updates vessel’s current position and heading, velocity, rate of turn, all associated accelerations, manual commands from the coordinated control joystick, and environmental input from the onboard wind sensors.
- SmartPredict gives indications of potential dangers during manoeuvring and is compatible with ECDIS.
