Abstract:
Techniques are disclosed for systems and methods to provide graphical user interfaces for assisted and/or autonomous navigation for mobile structures. A navigation assist system includes a user interface for a mobile structure comprising a display and a logic device configured to communicate with the user interface and render a docking user interface on the display. The logic device is configured to monitor control signals for a navigation control system for the mobile structure and render the docking user interface based, at least in part, on the monitored control signals. The docking user interface includes a maneuvering guide with a mobile structure perimeter indicator, an obstruction map, and a translational thrust indicator configured to indicate a translational maneuvering thrust magnitude and direction relative to an orientation of the mobile structure perimeter indicator.
