The VOYAGER Simulator enables advanced testing, validation, and mission planning for autonomous and remotely operated vessels by creating a Digital or Virtual Twin of a vessel or USV (Unmanned Surface Vessel), enabling users to:
- Create digital twins of vessels or USVs, simulating engines, sensors, and navigation data.
- Model multiple vessel tracks to test complex traffic scenarios and conduct quantitative analysis.
- Test COLREGs-compliant collision avoidance behavior in realistic maritime environments.
- Conduct shore-based simulation and immersive operational testing.
- Ingest live maritime traffic data and generate augmented traffic scenarios for operational training or testing.
- Perform complex seaborne mission rehearsal planning before real-world deployment.
The VOYAGER Simulator includes a range of capabilities designed to support autonomous vessel development and testing, including:
- Integrated ENC display for accurate maritime navigation environments.
- Drag-and-drop scenario creation for rapid simulation setup
- Remote Piloting (RP) testing capability.
- Integration with third-party hardware controllers for realistic RP operations.
- Support for Degree 4 autonomous vessel testing.
The VOYAGER Simulator provides developers, operators, and regulators with a powerful maritime synthetic environment to validate autonomous navigation behavior, improve safety, and accelerate the deployment of autonomous maritime systems.
By enabling high-fidelity simulation of vessels and complex traffic environments, the platform allows teams to test and refine operational scenarios before vessels ever enter the water, reducing risk while improving performance.
