瓦锡兰集团将为一个新的海事教育中心打造模拟训练实验室，并为其配置最先进的设备及技术。该中心位于瑞典哥德堡群岛上的Donsö岛，由瑞典航运公司Furetank开发，能够为船员提供专业培训、评估及认证等先进模拟服务。为了让船员更好地学习并适应最新的操作系统和设备，瓦锡兰打造出了这一可供14人同时使用的训练实验室，配备上结合虚拟现实、增强现实和混合现实等技术的物理模拟系统，创造出了高度逼真的学习场景，可开展包括导航、操纵、停靠、货物装卸和安全程序在内的培训。该模拟系统还导入了有关船舶新技术的应用方法，如岸电连接、液化天然气（LNG）/液化沼气（LBG）加注。据悉，该中心预计于2023年夏季开始运营。

Wärtsilä will supply a new maritime educational centre with a simulation training lab equipped with the most sophisticated technology available. The centre, located on the island of Donsö in Sweden, has been developed by Swedish shipping company Furetank. It will provide state-of-the-art simulation services, allowing crews to receive training, assessment, and certification. Wärtsilä has designed the simulation lab to address the very latest developments in operational equipment and systems, the facility can accommodate 14 students at one time. Physical simulation bridges are combined with virtual, augmented, and mixed reality applications. Together, they create highly realistic learning environments for navigation, manoeuvring, docking, cargo handling and safety procedures. The system also replicates and teaches the correct way to utilise new ship technology, such as shore power connections or LNG/PBG bunkering. The centre will be operational from summer 2023.
