True Echo Trails

 

True Echo Trails display the movement paths and speeds of vessels on radar for navigation clarity.

 

What is True Echo Trails?

 

True Echo Train technology visually represents the movements and speed of vessels by displaying a residual image (trail) over time.

Technology 2

True Echo Trails by Furuno is an advanced radar technology that enhances situational awareness for mariners by visually displaying the historical movement path of targets detected by radar.

 

This technology is crucial for interpreting the motion of other vessels and potential hazards in real-time, providing a clear visual trail that indicates the direction and speed of moving objects.

How does True Echo Trails work?

Displaying the trail of any echo


 

For instance, when a ship is traveling at high speed, it will leave long trails. On the other hand, trails will not appear for stationary objects like docked ships or buoys. If a moving vessel stops, its trail will slowly decrease in length.

at Furuno

"True Echo Trails technology is pivotal in enhancing navigational safety and decision-making. By providing a clear historical path of moving targets, this technology allows operators to predict potential risks and adjust their navigation strategies proactively. It's not just about seeing what is around you, but understanding the behavior of those elements over time, enabling more informed and situationally aware decisions on the water."

The two types of echo trails

 

There are two different kinds of echo trails: true trails and relative trails. Relative trails show how other vessels move in relation to your ship’s movement. In contrast, true trails display the actual movement of other ships relative to the land, not your vessel. Consequently, stationary ships do not produce trails.

True trail function from a bird's-eye view

 

The True Echo Trail technology displays the paths of other ships on the radar screen from an aerial perspective, making it appear as if viewed from above. It accurately shows the real speed of all vessels, enabling users to understand their movements more intuitively. Additionally, Furuno's true trail function allows for the use of the Head-Up mode.

Products employing this radar technology

 

These radars were developed to guarantee situational awareness as they reliably display in an intuitive way the movement of other vessels.

Line of sight of a Radar

 

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%

D=2.2(√H1 + √H2)

D: Radar line-of-sight (NM)

H1: Altitude at which the Radar is installed (m)

H2：Altitude of the object reverberating the signal (m)
