Abstract

Ensuring maritime safety and security is crucial for all nations. Training trainees and operational officers in this field aims to enhance their professional skills and ability to manage and resolve incidents at sea. This article outlines the development of a lifeboat simulation system that integrates Virtual Reality (VR) technology in accordance with international maritime regulations. It describes the creation of an algorithm designed to optimize data transmission between simulation systems using the ant colony optimization technique in conjunction with intelligent control algorithms on Unity 3D software for human interaction. In particular, the system combines training with a maritime simulation framework to comprehensively assess the trainee's progress and closely mirrors real-world scenarios. The application of the algorithm demonstrates that the speed and quality of the simulation increased substantially, effectively meeting the complex demands of the training process. The development of this virtual reality simulation system aims to facilitate seafarers' access to advanced maritime safety training technology in the future.
