Krupp Christens Bridge

Simulator For Use In

Hamburg Polytechnic

The navigation bridge "Susan" is the main compo- nent of the ship handling simulator currently being built by Krupp Atlas-Elektronik for the Hamburg Poly- technic. At the center of the photo in front of the radar simulators is Professor Werner Huth from the

Polytechnic's School of Maritime Studies.

Christening ceremonies were held recently at Krupp Atlas-Elektronik, Bremen, Ger- many, for the navigation bridge simulator "Susan." The bridge, whose facilities in- clude a motion simulation system, is the most important component of the ship han- dling simulator Krupp is currently building for the Hamburg Polytechnic, where it is due to be commissioned in the autumn of 1982 in a specially built training center.

Representatives of the Polytechnic's School of Maritime Studies were present at the ceremony.

The simulator bridge is mounted on hy- draulic cylinders which simulate the pitching and rolling of a ship. The bridge is equipped with all navigational equipment and con- trols, including radar. Training is controlled using high-resolution color displays which convey detailed position information. The simulator's vision system is based on the principle of digital-synthetic image genera- tion, using Krupp EPR 1300 process com- puters. Other ships, seamarks, and wharfs, etc. are simulated to provide a realistic view as it would appear on the bridge at any given instant.
