Coordinated Motion Control System
The Coordinated Motion Control system (CMS) transmits ANS commands to the ship actuators. It thus performs the same functions as the helmsman who converts the officer's orders to actions regarding steering and engine control. By CMS we consider ship heading or a trajectory control system which is already understood and used on a small but growing segment of highly automated vessels.
Currently CMS allows support through human control or follows a given trajectory with high accuracy while taking into account existing weather conditions and the ship model. By connecting CMS to ANS we allow for the control of propulsion and steering systems both automatically and remotely.
