Integrated Bridge and Navigation System (IBS)

Integrated Bridge and Navigation Systems from Raytheon Anschütz provide excellence performance and reliable navigation under all conditions by integrating well-proven, harmonizing equipment. Multifunction Systems are available to integrate the functions of navigation radars, ECDIS and conning on one workstation. This offers the full navigation data access at any place on the Integrated Bridge for precise, safe and comfortable operation under all circumstances. In conjunction with our autopilot, the Integrated Bridge and Navigation Systems allow qualified track control while the radar or ECDIS screen is being watched, thus achieving a higher level of navigation system integration.

Reliable sensors support the core navigation system with all relevant data, which is distributed and monitored by a fully redundant data and alarm management system. Radio communication systems according to GMDSS can be added to the Integrated Bridge and Navigation System.
