An integrated bridge system (IBS) is a collection of interconnected technologies that enables workstations to have centralised access to sensor data or command and control in order to improve the safe and effective administration of ships by appropriately certified personnel.
Integrated bridge systems must be set up so that when one subsystem fails, the officer in charge of the navigational watch is immediately alerted by audible and visual alerts and no other subsystems are affected.
It must be feasible to operate each individual piece of equipment or component of the system separately in the event of a breakdown in one component of an integrated navigation system.
It is a collection of technologies that are linked together to enable centralised control over different navigational aids. IBS enables the acquisition and management of sensor data for a variety of tasks, including the execution of passages, communication, machinery control, and safety and security.
An example of a navigation management system is the integrated bridge system (IBS), which connects to other systems to offer all ship navigational information in one location.
It is important to keep in mind that not all ship types have the same IBS. The system would change depending on the bridge’s architecture, the ship’s various types of equipment, and the general layout of the bridge’s equipment.
The Global Integrated Naval Bridge System market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2023 to 2030.
The most advanced naval programmes in the world’s history utilise integrated navigation and bridge systems designed by Raytheon Anschütz. Today, SYNAPSIS NAVAL, a new generation tool with a user-centred design, was unveiled.
The new technology makes use of the tried-and-true SYNAPSIS integrated navigation system from Raytheon Anschütz while also integrating a number of military system capabilities, such as radar video merging and other tactical radar features, integrated situational awareness, ship self-defence capabilities, military surveillance radars, and cyber security solutions.
“Our software design enables improved system interoperability and advanced operating capabilities, while reducing integration risk for customers,” stated Andreas Weidner, director of business development at Raytheon Anschütz.
The planned system, which will build on Raytheon Anschütz’s current Synapsis INBS generation, will be an advancement of the INBS given to Type 45 destroyers. In order to improve situational awareness and enable simple adaptation to varied and shifting mission conditions, the Synapsis INBS offers cutting-edge technology and enables any function, anywhere, at any time.
To complement situational tasks, Synapsis can also incorporate tactical components. Synapsis is distinguished by its open architecture, which represents the cutting edge in terms of performance, scalability, integration, and interoperability for bridge systems. The approach significantly streamlines logistics and lowers hardware startup and maintenance costs.
