FLAGSHIP-iCAS delivers optimum situation-awareness in an emergency situation

摘要

FLAGSHIP, the Pan-European maritime transport project part-funded by the EU, has successfully developed software that enables comprehensive suppression of audible warnings in order to avoid large cascades of alarms on the bridge and in the engine room. Called iCAS (intelligent Central Alarm System), the system is designed to provide a precise overview of the situation on board as it develops while freeing up staff to address the situation and follow the vessel's routines without disturbance.
