The ARI Full Mission SMS includes an ECDIS, Radar, Steering, Conning, Instructor station, Communication systems, Alarms, Navigation aids (GPS, Doppler Log, Echo Sounder, etc.), Course Recorder, Mooring and Anchoring Panels, Sound systems and Visualization channels. The high fidelity visual environment will be powered by ‘First Illusion’, ARI’s recently announced 3-D visualization platform that renders high fidelity worlds in real-time. The simulator will be equipped with a variety of resources including own-ship models, sailing areas and traffic ship models, besides allowing future customizations and the addition of resources as required.
 
Besides the Full Mission Ship Simulator, ARI is delivering a series of Liquid Cargo Handling Simulators (LCHS) to Executive Ship Management. Each simulator in the series is customized for a specific ship type - Chemical Tanker, Product Tanker, Oil Tanker and Gas Tanker – and accurately reproduces their respective behavioral parameters. The LCHS, one of the latest simulators to emerge from the ARI stable, incorporates sophisticated math models that enable real-time simulation of process flow control systems used in the storage and transfer of potentially hazardous bulk liquids between ship and shore. Using the advanced graphics capabilities of ARI’s ‘First Illusion’ 3D visualization platform, it offers users a unique photo realistic environment that brings the actual shipboard environment to life, making training more realistic and meaningful than ever before.

Executive Ship Management (http://www.executiveship.com) has consistently believed in the need to infuse modern technologies in the ship management arena. Together with its emphasis on training as an integral part of its safety culture, this has resulted in the establishment of a well-equipped, modern training center in Mumbai. Besides the ARI Full Mission simulators, the ESM training center is equipped with quality equipment such as a stainless steel chemical tank that closely replicates the on-board environment, complete with Framo pumping arrangements and tank accessories.
