Flashback to 2018 - “Maritime moonlanding” by Jim L. Hansen

We would like to take you back to 2018, when we completed a state of the art 360 dome bridge simulator for our client Rolls-Royce Marine (now Kongsberg Maritime). The simulator was the result of many years of close cooperation between Morild Interaktiv and Rolls-Royce Marine, and was unveiled to their worldwide 50 top executives on 25. September 2018. In a media interview the project was categorized as “a moon landing in the maritime industry”.

The 360 dome simulator features both fore and aft bridge, which can operate on the same -or different vessels. Fore and aft bridge can also operate in the same -or in different scenarios simultaneously - everything controlled from the “Morild Builder” instructor station application.

Below is a list of what Morild Interaktiv delivered to this project:

  • 15+ own vessels

  • 5 geo-specific locations (including New York)

  • Multiple props, offshore installations and target vessels

  • Virtual Reality (VR) mode

  • Instructor station and scenario builder application Morild Builder

  • Custom communication framework

  • Video projection design for 22 video projectors (together with our partner Warpalizer)

  • Warp & blend (together with our partner Warpalizer)
