![]() Automatic Sea Vision The sea is not the safest place on Earth. Optical watch is the essential function to ensure safety and security of ships at sea and at anchor. In spite of all the existing onboard equipment, including radar and AIS, the number of collisions, threatening manoeuvres and pirate attacks is not decreasing. Detecting a small rubber boat by radar is almost impossible. Only a good visual watch can detect it, and it still has to be made permanently and in the right direction. How many collisions could be avoided, how many attacks could be repelled, if only the crew had seen them early enough ? A technological revolution for safety and security at sea. It is an innovative system based both on permanent day and night all-round camera surveillance and the simultaneous automatic processing and recording of images taken in a constantly moving environment. Automatic Sea Vision is designed to complement human visual watch, particularly in difficult conditions at night, in fog, etc. Any dangerous or suspect approach to the vessel is detected, even in complete darkness, within a radius up to 6 nautical miles. |
