360 VR 3D - Maritime Digital Journey – Focus on Cruise

Digitalization and advanced technology solutions are the center of our efforts to keep ships safe and help our customers enhance the efficiency of their assets.

To showcase this innovative vision, DNV GL developed a virtual reality (VR) presentation, which shows how the company is pushing ahead with a digital transformation to improve the quality and efficiency of its services, as well as the emerging solutions which will take class into the future.

The VR experience takes viewers on a tour of RCCL’s Independence of the Seas, a modern cruise ship, to demonstrate how advanced sensor technology, powerful satellite connections, and the digital data being created and transmitted from vessels will open up a new range of possibilities for shipping. The presentation shows how ship data could be combined with survey results and a 3D model of the ship to build a digital twin – a digital copy of a vessel, modeled to exactly represent its properties. It also shows how this digital twin could be used to optimize the design, test how the networks on board respond to cyber attacks and even identify when equipment needs maintenance.
