All the performance of radar with the precision of laser
Mini RadaScan is a scaled-down version of Guidance’s RadaScan system. While retaining RadaScan’s precision and all weather capabilities, its reduced size and weight allows it be used on smaller vessels than those traditionally associated with RadaScan.
Mini RadaScan accurately measures the range and bearing of one or more intelligent microwave targets called responders, allowing for the calculation of vessel position and heading. The system enables automated approach and station keeping relative to a rig or platform, or to another vessel.
Guidance has innovated the concept of microwave precision position sensing in the offshore DP market which historically was done purely by mechanical, acoustic, GPS or laser technologies. By introducing a completely new technology concept to the market Guidance Marine has achieved higher operational safety for these applications, more choice and higher levels of redundancy.
