Each ship is scheduled to be fitted with a Sperry Vision 2100 integrated bridge system, which will include a Sperry VMS VT voyage management system (electron- ic chart display and voyage data recorder); Decca BridgeMaster VT radars; and Sperry gyros, autopilots, steering controls and speed logs. The communica- tions equipment will include a Sperry GMDSS station. The ink wasn't even dry on this prestigious order when Sperry was selected to provide the integrated bridge system for the new Eagle-class cruise ships for Royal Caribbean. The three 130,000-ton ships, under construc- tion at Kvaerner's Turku yard, will each receive a totally redundant package con- sisting of two independent Vision 2100 integrated bridge systems. Keeping with its hallmark of investment in technical innovation, Litton debuted the Innovation Bridge Series for the first time last year. The new ergonomic multi-func- tion bridge workstation concept takes advantage of the latest advances in flat- panel display technology, using high-reso- lution flat-panel color display screens which are only eight cm deep. "With the combination of advanced flat-panel technology and multi-function displays, we are able to reduce the num- ber of separate consoles and workstations required for the current generation of integrated bridge systems," said Nolasco DaCunha, vice president, Sales and Customer Support.
