Futuristic bridge concept

Rolls-Royce has predicted that ‘Ship Intelligence’ will be the next major transition for the shipping industry as vessels are set to become more complex and will require high levels of data analysis to operate on-board systems to manage propulsion, navigation and potentially lead to autonomous vessels.

The windows of the bridge serve as augmented reality displays of the vessel’s surroundings
