USE OF A WIRELESS CONTROL SYSTEM TO DIRECT AN UNMANNED WATERCRAFT TO A FIRST POSITION DURING A LAUNCH OR A RECOVERY SITUATION

摘要

Use of a wireless control system comprising a master control unit positioned on a manned watercraft, and a slave unit positioned on an unmanned watercraft, and arranged to control speed and direction of the unmanned watercraft, wherein the master control unit transmits data to the slave unit for controlling a first position of the unmanned watercraft in relation to the manned watercraft during launch situations and/or during recovery situations, where launch situations are launching of the unmanned watercraft from the manned watercraft and subsequently guiding the unmanned watercraft to the desired first position relative the manned watercraft, or guiding the unmanned watercraft out of a harbour, and recovery situations are guiding the unmanned watercraft to a second position close to the manned watercraft, from which second position the unmanned watercraft is boarded onto the manned watercraft, or guiding the unmanned watercraft to a mooring in a harbour.
