EDO announces a Heavy Weather Damage Avoid- ance and Guidance System — applicable to all types of vessels and of inestimable value to today's crit- ically laden container ships and giant super-tankers.
The new system warns tho ship's master of the probability of damage to the ship and its cargo, and provides maneuvering guidance ... without radical departure from course and speed required to main- tain the ship's optimum schedule.
EDO's computerized system has a unique mem- ory bank which continuously samples inputs from sensors in critical load areas. It is an automated, practical means of detecting lateral bending.
Savings In time, money and lost or damaged cargo can easily repay the cost of the system in a single voyage.
