We had a great time at our #datacollection on #StatsraadLehmkuhl last night. We sailed from #Bergen, past #Askoy and towards #Oygarden in great weather.

The bridge crew got to test the #HoloLens #AR application that Floris van den Oever has developed for his #PhD. The crew found the interface to be intuitive, and saw the potential in having information about other ships as overlays in their visual field. Looking forward to more field testing!
