our latest systems increases the wheelhouse
and console design possibilities, to furnish
a bridge with screen-based instruments
and gauges that all have the same look,
using the same colour palette. For larger
yachts, Kongsberg offer bridge alert/alarm
systems, radar/ecdis, autopilot, dynamic
positioning, automation and auxiliaries (like
wipers, horn, lanterns etc) controlled from a
multifunctional touchscreen operator panel,
furnished either within the console itself,
in an armrest, or on a floating pedestal.”
It is often the case that bridge system
developers, software designers and
consultants prefer to partner with hardware
manufacturers who already have the kind of
high level, precision-engineering experience
and significant resource required for
manufacturing displays and screens. These
manufacturers will often have worked not
just from within marine markets, but in
avionics and aerospace industries as well.
General Manager of Telemar in Fort
Lauderdale, David Gratton, told me,
“While we are not a manufacturer, we have
developed several bridge related solutions
for superyachts, including a fully integrated
glass bridge solution in partnership with
Pariani in Milan. A completely custom-made
solution with all the elegance of Italian
design and robustness of class approved
deployments, where we can help make the
bridge a fully functional and redundant
showpiece for discriminating owners.”
