Type Approval for VisionMaster FT04/01/2008 |
| Northrop Grumman Corporation's Sperry Marine business unit has received type approval from the U.K. certification body, QinetiQ, for its new-generation VisionMaster FT suite of marine navigation systems. |
|
The QinetiQ type approval certifies that the VisionMaster FT ECDIS conforms to the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) technical specifications and International Maritime Organization (IMO) performance standards. The type approval also authorises Sperry Marine to mark the products with the European Union Wheelmark insignia, signifying compliance with applicable European Council directives. Sperry Marine's VisionMaster FT radar and chart radar systems also received QinetiQ type approval last year.
The VisionMaster FT ECDIS complies with all IMO carriage requirements for navigating without paper charts when a backup ECDIS is installed. The ECDIS can be integrated with the radar and automatic identification system for common target identification and overlay of data on the ECDIS screen.
