PLC (Programmable Logic Controller): A rugged, industrial computer used in marine automation to control and monitor machinery like engines, pumps, and HVAC systems. It ensures reliable operation in harsh marine conditions.
HMI (Human-Machine Interface): A user-friendly touchscreen or display panel that allows crew members to interact with and monitor onboard systems, providing real-time data visualization and control.
SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition): A centralized system that collects data from multiple PLCs and sensors, enabling remote monitoring, control, and data logging of marine operations, improving efficiency and safety.
These technologies work together to automate and optimize ship operations, ensuring smooth performance and compliance with maritime regulations.
