The latest piracy statistics released by the International Maritime Bureau (IMB) Piracy Reporting Centre (PRC) point to a significant increase in attacks by pirates in the first nine months of 2008. Najnovija statistika piratstva koje je objavio International Maritime Bureau (IMB) piratstva centar (PRC) ukazuju na znatan porast napada gusara u prvih devet mjeseci 2008. According to a PRC press release, reported acts of piracy committed up to late October 2008 have included 115 vessels boarded, 31 vessels hijacked, and 23 vessels fired upon, seeing a total of 581 crew members taken hostage, nine kidnapped, nine killed and seven missing, presumed dead. Prema PRC press release, izvijestili djela počinjena piratstva do krajem listopada 2008 uključeni su se ukrcali na 115 plovila, 31 plovila hijacked i 23 vatru na plovila, jer je ukupno 581 članova posade uzeta za taoce, devet kidnapovani devet ubijenih i sedam nedostaje, smatra mrtvima. The highly publicised seizures in November only highlight further the extent of this threat to the shipping industry. Visoko napadajima objavio u studenom samo u mjeri u kojoj ističu daljnju ovog prijetnju za brodarske industrije.

Holographic radar is a non-scanning, continuously tracking 3D radar that provides persistent illumination of its field of view and can resolve and measure an object’s motion at fine scale, as well as its range and direction. Holografska radar je nestranačka skeniranje, kontinuirano praćenje 3D radar koji pruža uporni obasjavanje svojih polja i pogled može riješiti i mjerenje objekta u pokretu's fine skale, kao i opseg i smjer. It is currently being scaled up for use on wind farms to offer infill coverage for air traffic control and military surveillance radars, but if adapted appropriately for a marine surveillance application and placed at prominent points on a vessel’s superstructure, it would enable a crew to detect small boats and take evasive maneuvres or trigger self-defense mechanisms to repel a pirate attack. Ona je trenutno registratorski za korištenje na vjetroelektrana ponuditi ispunjavanja pokrivenost za kontrolu zračnog prometa i vojni nadzor radari, ali ako na odgovarajući način prilagođen za pomorski nadzor primjene i stavljen na istaknute točke na nadgrađe broda, on bi omogućio posada za otkrivanje malih brodica i izbjegavajući maneuvres ili pokretati self-obrambenih mehanizama za otjerati pirat napada.

“Current ship-based radar systems are designed to prevent collisions at sea, or to detect threats from the sky,” continues Oswald. "Current radar-brod-based sustavi namijenjeni su za sprečavanje sudara na moru, ili za detektiranje prijetnji sa neba", nastavlja Oswald. “They do this by scanning the surveillance zone, emitting a pulsed beam and detecting the reflections from moving objects. "Oni su to učinili po skeniranjem nadgledanja zona, emitiranje jednog pulsed beam razmišljanja i otkrivanja je od pokretnih objekata. This form of radar is simply not suited to close quarters surveillance of an environment that, like the sea, moves and changes shape. Ovaj oblik radar jednostavno nije pogodna za komšiluku nadzor okruženju koje, kao more, pokrete i promjene oblika. Our holographic radar technology is designed for exactly this sort of application.” Naš holografska radarske tehnologije je dizajniran upravo za ovu vrstu primjene. "
