Bridge Mate CyScan is a high performance local position reference sensor specifically engineered for marine vessel control applications. It can serve as a primary or back-up sensor and is compatible with virtually any type of vessel.
The Bridge Mate CyScan contains a laser scanner connected to the vessel's DP system and is operated from a computer console installed on the vessel's bridge. The rotating laser sensor calculates the range and bearing of the reflections from one or more retro-reflective targets installed on the target platform or vessel. If multiple targets are used, the vessel's heading can also be calculated. This information is fed directly to the vessel's DP system.
