摘要: An apparatus for detecting a traffic participant includes a first detection device for detecting the traffic participant in a first detection zone. The first detection device is configured to repeatedly detect the first detection zone and to detect an entering of a traffic participant in the first detection zone, and/or to detect the traffic participant in an angular section in an extended first detection zone beyond the first detection zone according to an instruction. The apparatus also includes a second detection device that detects the traffic participant in a second detection zone, and is adapted to provide data required for instruction about the traffic participant in response to the detection of the traffic participant and to forward it to the first detection device for instruction. This way, the traffic participant may be detected by the first detection device before entering the first detection zone.

摘要: A method for situation awareness is provided. The method comprises: preparing a neural network trained by a learning set, wherein the learning set includes a plurality of maritime images and maritime information including object type information which includes a first type index for a vessel, a second type index for a water surface and a third type index for a ground surface, and distance level information which includes a first level index indicating that a distance is undefined, a second level index indicating a first distance range and a third level index indicating a second distance range greater than the first distance range; obtaining a target maritime image generated from a camera; and determining a distance of a target vessel based on the distance level index of the maritime information being outputted from the neural network which receives the target maritime image and having the first type index.

摘要: A method of controlling a propulsion system on a marine vessel includes receiving proximity measurements describing locations of one or more objects with respect to the marine vessel, receiving a command vector instructing magnitude and direction for propulsion of the marine vessel with respect to a point of navigation for the marine vessel, and then determining a funnel boundary based on the command vector. An object is identified based on the proximity measurements and determined to be within the funnel boundary, and then a propulsion adjustment command is calculated based on the command vector and an angle of the object with respect to the point of navigation. At least one propulsion device is then controlled based on the propulsion adjustment command in order to avoid the object.

摘要: This disclosure aims to accurately track a tracking target regardless of a surrounding environment. A tracking processor may be provided, which includes a tracking processing module configured to perform processing of tracking a tracking target, and a congestion degree calculating submodule configured to calculate a degree of congestion of objects located within an area including an estimated position of the tracking target. The tracking processing module may perform the processing of tracking the tracking target based on a value of the congestion degree calculated by the congestion degree calculating submodule.

摘要: Vessel communications systems and methods are described. According to one aspect, a vessel communications method includes receiving a first inbound wireless communication within a subject vessel, the first inbound wireless communication comprising positional data regarding a location of a first vessel, receiving a second inbound wireless communication within the subject vessel, the second inbound wireless communication comprising positional data regarding a location of a second vessel, selecting the positional data of the first vessel but not the positional data of the second vessel and after the selecting, outputting an outbound wireless communication comprising the positional data of the first vessel but not the positional data of the second vessel.

摘要: A networked system shares operational information (tasks, positions, times, etc.) between dissimilar operators performing dissimilar operations in a same marine field. The shared information include associations (linkages and conflicts) that allows each operator to optimize its operations and complete tasks in a more efficient manner. As part of this system, a planning tool having a graphical user interface can be used to visualize plans at an operator (and nearby operators). Changes made to plans by one operator are shared with other operators via the system and illustrated in the interface at the other operators, thereby allowing the other operators to make their own respective operational changes in response.

摘要: A self-contained, low-cost, low-weight guidance system for vehicles is provided. The guidance system can include an optical camera, a case, a processor, a connection between the processor and an on-board control system, and computer algorithms running on the processor. The guidance system can be integrated with a vehicle control system through “plug and play” functionality or a more open Software Development Kit. The computer algorithms re-create 3D structures as the vehicle travels and continuously updates a 3D model of the environment. The guidance system continuously identifies and tracks terrain, static objects, and dynamic objects through real-time camera images. The guidance system can receive inputs from the camera and the onboard control system. The guidance system can be used to assist vehicle navigation and to avoid possible collisions. The guidance system can communicate with the control system and provide navigational direction to the control system.

摘要: A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium stores therein a program that causes a computer to execute a process. The process includes calculating, for each of a plurality of grids through which a track of a specific vessel passes, an angle of approach and an angle of exit of the track, respectively; extracting a grid for which the angle of approach and the angle of exit conform to a determining condition set for each of the grids based on the determining condition; and determining whether the specific vessel has taken an avoidance behavior based on a relative distance from another vessel corresponding to a position of the specific vessel in a track in the extracted grid.
