해양안전심판원의 해양사고 통계자료에 따르면 기관손상 등을 제외한 해양사고 중 충돌사고의 비중은 가장 높고, 대부분의 충돌사고는 경계소흘 등 운항과실이 약 90%를 차지한다. 본 연구에서는 운항자의 항행 안전을 지원하고자 육상 무선 통신기술을 이용하여 중소형 선박의 충돌예방 시스템을 최종적으로 개발하기 위해 먼저 소형어선(30톤미만) 운항자의 요구분석을 수행하였다. 분석을 통해 충돌회피거리, 당직자 배치, 긴급피항시 필요시간, 충돌 및 경보시스템 개발에 필요한 사항 등을 도출하였다. 향후 이를 바탕으로 해상에서의 선박충돌 예방을 위한 신뢰성 높은 충돌경보 알고리즘을 개발 적용하는 등 사용자 편의적인 충돌경보 시스템을 개발하고자 한다.

선교에서 항해자는 견시를 통해 선박의 주위 상황을 인지하고, RADAR나 ECDIS와 갈은 항해 장비의 정보를 동시에 파악하면서 운항해야한다. 이렇게 복잡한 정보 제공 환경에서는 상황 인지에 대한 인적과실이 발생할 가능성이 크기 때문에 보다 효율적인 항행정보 제공 기술이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 항해장비가 제공하는 다양한 정보들을 외부 영상에 중첩하여 전시할 수 있는 증강현실 기반 항해지원 시스템의 항행정보 정함 기술을 개방하고, 이를 선박운항 시뮬레이터 환경에서 검증하는 연구를 수행 하였다. 본 시스템은 항해장비로부터 항행정보를 획득한 후, 이 정보를 카메라를 통해 입력되는 영상과 중첩하여 항해사에게 제공하며, 효과적인 중첩처리를 위하여 상용 그래픽스 엔진인 Unity3D를 사용 하였다. 또한, 시뮬레이터 실험 결과 선박의 움직임에도 정확하게 정합되는 것을 확인하였으며, 개발원 기술은 향후 실제 선교환경에서 활용될 수 있는 증강현실 기반의 항행정보 지원 시스템에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

As a method to improve the present operational and safe function in navigation this paper developed an efficient and economical integrated system of ship's information. This system is, systematically and comprehensively, to monitor, save, analyse, and display information on navigation and environment around own ship in real time by connecting one user to another through an on-board LAN or data communication via satellite so that many users on board can obtain simultaneously and easily the information in real time not only in the wheelhouse and engine room but also in many robins and ship's offices. And it consists of four(5) components; data distribution program, database of navigational and engine-related information, multi-functional monitoring program, ship management program and other application program.

Many maritime accidents have been caused by human-error including such things as inadequate watch keeping and/or mistakes in ship handling. Also, new navigational equipment has been developed using IT technology to provide various information for safe navigation. Despite these efforts, the reduction of maritime accidents has not occurred to the degree expected because, navigational equipment provides too much information, and this information is not well organized, such that users feel it to be complicated rather than helpful. In this point of view, the method of representation of navigational information is more important than the quantity of that information and research is required on the representation of information to make that information more easily understood and to allow decisions to be made correctly and promptly. In this paper, we adopt Augmented Reality (AR) technologies for the representation of information. AR is a 3D computer graphics technology that blends virtual reality and the real world. Recently, this technology has been widely applied in our daily lives because it can provide information more effectively to users. Therefore, we propose a new concept, a navigational system based on AR technology; we review experimental results from a ship-handling simulator and from an open sea test to verify the efficiency of the proposed system.

For the efficient and safe navigation management of ships cruising across oceans, international maritime law environments have been reinforced and the demand of information sharing between ships and shore has also been increasing. According to these environments and demand. researches about digital ships, ship integration, and ship integration networks have been active recently in US and Europe. In this raper, we first investigate about the proper ship integration platform, and then design and implement a ship integration network based upon the ship integration platform. We construct networks connecting various devices and systems into a layered architecture, and design an integration protocols. Based upon this architecture and protocols, we implement an ship integration system which manages all data and information of ship in a standardized platform and support ship-shore information sharing through which the more efficient and safer ship navigation management are supported with help from shore. We test our ship integration system by applying it to real operating ships and we find our system reliability and verify the efficiency of ship-shore information sharing and management.

Vessels sail according to the COLREG to prevent a collision. However, it is difficult to apply COLREG under special situation as heavy traffic, at this time personal skills of the operator are required. In this case, traffic control is required through the maritime traffic monitoring system. Therefore, maritime traffic management is globally implemented by VTS. In this system, VTS of icer uses the VTS system to assess risks and recommends possible safety operation to vessels with radio systems. This study considers that the risk analysis method with AI (Artificial Intelligence) technology from the operator's aspect. In addition, the research explains the Maritime Traffic Safety Monitoring System, Including AR (Augmented Reality) technology to increase vessel control efficiency. This system is able to predict hazards and risk priorities, and it leads to sequential elimination of dangerous situations. Especially, the hazard situations can be analyzed from operator's perspective of each vessel instead of the VTS officer's aspect, which is more practical than the conventional method. Furthermore, the result of analysis enables to comprehend quantitative hazardous areas and support recommended routes to avoid a collision. As a result, I firmly believe that the system will support to prevent a collision in complex traffic waters. In particular, it could be adopted as a collision prevention system for Maritime Autonomous Surface Ship, which occupies a significant proportion in Maritime 4th industrial revolution.

The International Maritime Organization is establishing international agreements on maritime safety and security to prepare for the introduction of autonomous ships. In Korea, the industry is focusing on autonomous navigation system technology development, and to reduce accidents involving coastal ships, research on autonomous ship technology application plans for coastal ships is in progress. Interest in autonomously operated ships is increasing worldwide, and maritime demonstrations for verification of developed technologies are being pursued. In this study, a basic investigation was conducted on the design of a demonstration ship and an onshore platform (remote support center) using digital twin technology for application to coastal ships. To apply digital twin technology, an 8-m small battery-powered electric propulsion ship was selected as the target. The basic design of the twin-integrated platform was developed. The ship navigation and operation data were stored on a server system, and remote-control commands of the electric propulsion ship was achieved through communication between the ship and the onshore platform. Ship performance management, operation and operation optimization, and predictive control are possible using this digital twin technology. This safe and economical digital twin technology is applicable to ships responding to crisis scenarios.
