Recently the avoidance of ship collisions is becoming essential from the viewpoint of maneuvering ships safely in crowded or crossing areas. The information needed for safe navigation is currently obtained by combining radar data with information obtained visually. However, misjudgments accompanying visual observations comprise a major cause of ship collisions. For this reason, ship collision-avoidance systems were studied, including the use of radar and infrared imaging. A method was elaborated for measuring the course of a target vessel and for the evaluation of the risk of a collision by extracting images of a target ship from an infrared image. It is shown that the effective and simultaneous use of radar and such images can improve performance in terms of collision avoidance.
