Development of a HMI for a novel environmentally referenced dynamic positioning sensor

当在近海平台和基础设施周围作业时，船舶依靠不同技术的多个传感器向其动态定位(DP)系统提供信息，使它们能够接近和保持位置。商业上可获得的雷达和激光本地位置参考传感器安装在大多数启用DP的船只上，用于相对于安装在基础设施上的目标定位船只。靶子的使用带来了一些安全问题和费用影响，包括：安装过程中的安全问题；靶子质量差导致反射不可靠；障碍物的干扰；维护和资本支出费用；作业时间和费用增加。Guidance Marine(GM)是全球领先的DP位置测量技术开发商和供应商。通用汽车开发了一种新型的环境参考传感器，以提高全球DP海上作业的安全性和效率，以回应行业关切和石油巨头的直接授权。在这一工业研究项目期间，通用汽车将开发一个人机界面，确保这项技术的输出对最终用户隐藏技术复杂性，并允许最大限度地发挥技术进步的影响。

When operating around offshore platforms and infrastructure, vessels rely on multiple sensors of different technologies to provide information to their Dynamic Positioning (DP) systems, enabling them to approach and maintain position. Commercially available radar and laser local position reference sensors, installed on the majority of DP enabled vessels, are used to position the vessel relative to targets installed on the infrastructure. The use of targets presents a number of safety issues and cost implications including: safety concerns during installation; unreliability of reflections due to the poor quality of targets, interference from obstructions; maintenance and CAPEX costs; increased operational time and costs. Guidance Marine (GM) is a leading global developer and supplier of DP position measurement technologies. GM has developed a novel environmentally referenced sensor to enhance the safety and efficiency of global DP enabled operations at sea in response to industry concerns and direct mandate from oil majors. During this industrial research project, GM will develop a human-machine interface that ensures that outputs of this technology hide technical complexity to the end-user and allows maximal impact of the technological advance.
