About the Event
The KM Koo Ship Bridge Simulator at the Hong Kong Maritime Museum boasts the city’s most state-of-the-art control deck for ocean-going vessels and provides the most realistic sailing experience to the audience. For example, the Simulator is capable of creating a variety of realistic immersive weather conditions such as typhoon, rough seas, fog, rain and even snow.
It allows visitors to steer a variety of ships including container barge, high-speed boat or even the famous historic Star Ferry, and learn the various roles of seafarers in the simulator to experience an immersive and authentic ‘sea journey’ through Hong Kong waters and the Victoria Harbour waterfront!
In this professional-grade simulator, one can experience seafaring like never before. Guided by the museum staff or maritime services students from the Maritime Services Training Institute (MSTI), visitors can track the ship’s location and trajectory on the Electronic Chart Display, listen to real-time radio communications from a transceiver, view traffic information using the radar, and last but not least, steer at the vessel’s helm.
