Description
Vessels of the future must undergo an important control of safety, loads, machinery, consumption, contamination, noise, etc, and this control should be possible from the ground. This means that it will be necessary to know accurately and at all times what is happening on the ship and, in turn, should have the possibility of intervening in it remotely. For this, the automation and integration of intelligent systems will be increasingly important. Based on this objective, Janus Systems has developed JANUS®, a system that combines software, hardware and sensors and that once installed on any existing vessel or under construction, makes it “Smart” and allows its management or governance (both in calm Waters and in adverse conditions) from a Remote Operation Centre via satellite. That is, a system that allows the existence of remote ships. The system consists of 8 modules that work together, integrating all aspects of safety, efficiency, environmental and navigation, according to the regulations that have already entered into force or will enter soon.
