subjected to hundreds of hours of real world environmental<br />

and operational conditions on actual cruise<br />

ships and the results demonstrated accurate detection<br />

(i.e. approaching 100%) with little to no false alarms.<br />

SITUATIONALLY AWARE USER INTERFACE<br />

Use of geospatial data within the detection algorithms<br />

allows for a user interface that is easy to understand and<br />

simple to use. In situations, such as a man overboard<br />

events, providing a high level of situational awareness<br />

aids first responders in gaining a full understanding<br />

of the event as quickly as possible. This is achieved<br />

through geolocation of the alarm location, instant access<br />

to detection images, looping videos of the event, as well<br />

as audio notification. <strong>The</strong> system includes a full alarm<br />

database and video playback capability.<br />
