Abstract :
The article present intelligent control system of ship motion in situations threatening with collision. The goal of the presented system is to support the navigator in decision making, with possible full replacement of his work in the future. In this article, it was introduced system joins work of two computer techniques, evolutionary algorithms to marking of optimum path of passages and fuzzy logic to control ship after set path of passage. Introduced system has to assure safe trip of ship in each navigational conditions with regard of weather conditions and met navigational objects of static or dynamic nature. For testing of the operation the system, the marine environment simulator was used to present navigational situations in a 3D graphical mode at the poor hydro- and meteorological conditions
