Improved access from Kelvin Hughes

The new bridge system from Kelvin Hughes uses five 23in flat panel displays and an independent control unit. Two high chairs either side of the control unit give operators head-height vision while using the system, says the company. Kelvin Hughes says the new bridge system will make moving around the bridge easier for operators and improve access to displays and controls. It will also help when the vessel is making difficult manoeuvring operations, such as when docking or when navigating in narrow channels or in busy shipping lanes, says the company.
