In late 2019, 900lbs was approached by Royal Caribbean Cruises Limited (RCL) to develop a Proof of Concept interactive visualization tool for the Safety Command Center of the future. RCL sought a way to transition from the printed deck maps and overlays, disparate systems, and traditional safety tools to create a more interactive, future-forward application that would differentiate RCL as an innovative brand and, most importantly, leverage emerging technologies as tools to support Safety Command Center efforts onboard.
This original Proof of Concept was showcased at RCL’s Sea Beyond Event, held at the historic Brooklyn Naval Yard, as part of a series of hands-on examples showcasing how RCL’s investment in digital technology and innovation is driving change across the fleet.
Less than one year later, RCL reached out to our team at 900lbs to discuss the possibility of making the Safety Command Center vision a reality.
