Synopsis
This book examines a radical new method for signaling, with the potential for revolutionizing safety at sea. By synchronizing signals transmitted using various methods, such as sound waves traveling through water and air, and radio, this technique allows ships to communicate crucial navigational data with each other. Advanced methods of acoustic signal timing allow onboard instruments to compute their exact distance to signaling sources, such as lighthouses or other ships. The system has significant benefits over existing navigational techniques, enabling precise and real-time determination of position and speed with reduced dependence on visibility. Beyond collision avoidance, the increased data available can assist in navigation, anti-submarine warfare, and search and rescue. The author, an experienced physicist, makes a convincing case for the transformative potential of this technology, supported by extensive research and practical demonstrations.
