 The Varuna Man Overboard System™, or V-MOB™, is a revolutionary system designed to enhance safety, security and situational awareness onboard ships.
The V-MOB is a unique integration of advanced cameras, sensors and software that automatically provides surveillance and detection around the ship’s perimeter, alerting the crew to anomalies such as man-overboard, fires, and unauthorized boarding.
When an overboard incident occurs, the V-MOB sensors detect it, GPS coordinates to the overboard site are recorded, and designated personnel are alerted via specific alarms. The V-MOB significantly enhances the opportunity for rapid rescue of overboard personnel.
In testing, the V-MOB actually detected the presence of fire up to two minutes sooner than contemporary fire detection systems commonly found on ships, thereby maximizing fire suppression and extinguishing efforts.
Unauthorized attempts to board are detected by the V-MOB system, and the ensuing alerts notify security personnel onboard the ship, providing critical response time to meet and deal with the threat in a timely manner.
