New prediction tool gives warning of incoming rogue waves

- A new prediction tool developed by MIT engineers may give sailors a 2-3 minute warning of an incoming rogue wave, providing them with enough time to shut down essential operations on a ship or offshore platform. (Learn more: mitsha.re/YIAH6)

Proud to say that one of my videos was used in the making of this documentary. At 0.27 you can see my ship hit by a huge wave. This was not the biggest I have experienced, just the biggest I managed to film. The following year we had our bridge windows smashed. It was like looking up at the North Face of the Eiger as it fell down on us.
Bigwavemaster1 I can see being able to alert passengers and rescue teams if a rogue wave was detected near your ship, I saw a big vessel take a 82 foot wave from the side and went 55 degrees the other direction and managed to not capsize. I can see positioning the boat properly is a benefit...anything else I am missing? Research data of course. I imagine rogue waves are more popular than I believe but they may not all he 80 foot waves but more like a 40-50 foot wave when the water was calm.
It's amazing the new technology coming out and how we can have early detection.
This is actually pretty interesting. I'd like to see a test of this.
At it again with impressing us 👍
I thought I already commented on this video about a week ago. How odd... I would still love to see future implementations to prevent the amount of tragedies due to waves.
I hope to attend this school! :)

Saving lives...
Great news for seafarers.
So I'm doing a reading assignment, and the question reads "After watching the video, discuss how research might have altered the events of the story. Response must be 5 sentences for full credit.", AND I DON'T UNDERSTAND THE QUESTION😭😭
wow, that is innovative!
My question is, what exactly do you do if you’re sailing your family on a catamaran around the Cape of Good Hope, and your program says there’s an 80-foot wave likely to form off your bow at 20 degrees starboard? What do you do with that information to save your family?

Nice!
Three rogue waves didn't like this video.
how would you scan the ocean though?
With some thingy that goes "beep boop beep boop"
+Dan Frederiksen From the article:
"To put the algorithm into practice, he says ships and offshore platforms will have to utilize high-resolution scanning technologies such as LIDAR and radar to measure the surrounding waves."
+aikimark1955 seems unlikely to afford a 2 minute warning unless it's airborne. which is a significant limitation.
+Dan Frederiksen That's the key, and is something they don't even discuss. (Which makes the video sorta useless.)
+Dan Frederiksen Hi, ship-based near-real-time high-resolution measurement of the wave field is not as far off as you think. My group at Scripps Institution of Oceanography has been working on it for several years. Other institutions are studying Lidar and X-band radar technologies and their applications to ocean waves, so just wait and see!
pretty useless if it isn't practical, normal ships aren't gonna have super collider worth of scanning equipment.
According to the article I read that sent me to this video through a link, it would probably only require radar and lidar, which have become widely available and affordable (new cars now have them). The “magic” happens in the mathematical analysis of the waves that are being detected and measured through the use of their program that uses their algorithm.
@@YendorSignemeck I'm interested in this question. Can you share the article you have read about this video? Thank you!
