Montreal, Canada – September 9, 2025 — Imagine 4D is proud to announce a strategic collaboration with a leading OEM specializing in naval vessel automation management systems. This partnership marks the beginning of a pilot project to integrate a ship automation system with its Digital Twin, advancing the next generation of maritime operations and training.
A naval vessel’s automation management system is a distributed, computer-based platform that enables centralized, real-time monitoring and control of critical systems such as propulsion, power generation, and damage control. These systems play a vital role in enhancing operational efficiency and situational awareness on board.
Imagine 4D’s Digital Twin Framework (DTF) is an advanced software suite designed to create, connect, manage, and visualize accurate Digital Twin applications, enabling organizations to accelerate their digital transformation.
This project will leverage the DTF to integrate a vessel’s automation management system with its digital twin, unlocking a wide range of potential use cases, including:
- – Enhanced operator readiness and situational awareness
- – Real-time support for damage control teams during incidents
- – Immersive ship operator training
- – Insight into ship system interlocks
- – Synthetic fault and alarm signal tracing
- – Centralized access to technical documentation
- – Defect resolution and engineering change management
- – Logistics and maintenance support
- – Real-time simulations to forecast equipment wear and tear
- – Playback and analysis of historical operational data
These use cases represent just a subset of the capabilities enabled by Digital Twin integration. This collaboration demonstrates how advanced digital, visualization and simulation technologies can transform operations, training, and maintenance in the naval sector.
Imagine 4D remains committed to pushing the boundaries of digital innovation and looks forward to expanding the possibilities of Digital Twin applications in the maritime domain.
