Fast Target Tracking™

 

Fast Target Tracking™ (Fast TT) displays vectors showing target speed and heading instantly.

What is Fast Target Tracking™?

 

Fast Target Tracking™ (Fast TT) is a technology that instantaneously shows a vector representing the target's speed and heading.

Technology 2

Fast Target Tracking™ (Fast TT) is a sophisticated feature incorporated into many of Furuno's marine radar systems.

 

This technology is designed to enhance navigational safety by providing users with real-time updates on the movements of other vessels or targets in their vicinity.

 

By automatically detecting and tracking targets at speed, Fast TT allows mariners to make informed and timely decisions to avoid potential hazards.

How does Fast Target Tracking™ work?

 

When clicking on target and tracking a target with the Fast TT, the vector is quickly displayed. With conventional TT, it takes several minutes. When the target turns counterclockwise, with the Fast TT, vector also instantaneously reacts. With conventional TT, response time is much longer.

Faster target acquisition


 

With conventional TT, there's a delay in showing the velocity vector to forecast a target's path after selection. In contrast, Fast TT allows for immediate target tracking from the outset, enabling instant trajectory calculations and velocity vector display. This technology is especially beneficial in crowded waters as it can instantly monitor any target.

Radar waves propagate along Earth's surface, but due to diffraction effect, these waves propagate in a slightly curved manner. The degree of diffraction is determined by many factors including atmosphere density. In general, the diffraction curve allows the wave to go beyond the line-of-sight by about 6%

Fast target tracking

Evolution of acquisition stability and tracking performance


 

Thanks to its sophisticated algorithm, the Fast TT boasts superior tracking performance over conventional TTs. It effectively resolves the acquisition focus bug (where the acquisition mark shifts to a nearby target) commonly encountered with multiple targets. Furthermore, the Fast TT excels in tracking other vessels executing sharp turns.
