GUARDIANAI™ VISION
Advanced Situational Awareness for Autonomous and Manned Vessels
GuardianAI™ Vision is an advanced sensor fusion system that delivers unparalleled situational awareness for vessels, supporting both autonomous and remotely operated navigation. By integrating multiple sensor inputs, Guardian Vision creates a high-fidelity Dynamic Hazard Map (DHM)—helping ships navigate safely, efficiently, and in full compliance with COLREGs.
How Guardian Vision Enhances Vessel Awareness
Multi-Sensor Fusion for Precision Navigation
Guardian Vision processes and integrates data from multiple onboard sensors, providing a real-time, trusted contact map that eliminates false positives. This system enhances safety by ensuring vessels have reliable, data-driven intelligence for navigation and collision avoidance.
- Environment Sensor Fusion – Analyses weather and environmental conditions affecting the vessel.
- Navigation Sensor Fusion – Aggregates data from multiple navigational sensors to provide a robust, real-time navigation state report.
- AIS & Radar Processing – Combines AIS data with high-resolution radar feeds (S-band & X-band) for comprehensive awareness.
- Sonar Manager – Extracts and interprets raw sonar echo data for enhanced obstacle tracking and collision avoidance.
- Acoustic Manager – Processes audio signals to detect and classify sounds such as ship horns.
- Chart Data Server – Utilises official marine charts (S-57/S-63/S-100) to generate hazard maps.
- Computer Vision & Lookout System – Uses EO/IR cameras to identify vessels, navigational markers, and unknown obstacles, classifying boats by type (powered/sailing) for optimal route planning.
