title = "Bridge simulator as a training platform for future remotely controlled MASS navigators",
abstract = "This chapter explores effective bridge simulator training for future remotely controlled (RC) maritime autonomous surface ship (MASS) navigators. The investigation focused on advanced modern ship remote navigation through combined scaled unmanned models in a lake and manned bridge simulators. Remote control by laptop emerges as a dependable choice, offering direct line-of-sight control and proving highly effective for precise manoeuvres such as berthing operations. On the contrary, remote control using the simulator instructor station set-up provides enhanced connection reliability through digital twin technology, although lacking direct visual feedback. Despite challenges, remote control using digital twins in the bridge simulator allows navigators access to comprehensive navigational equipment, while scaling issues remain a concern. The outcome of this research could be an objective for further investigation on finding the future RC MASS maritime training requirements using bridge simulators, of which the training may be linked to the way in which remote navigation is conducted in the future.",
