Abstract

A cruise ship is a passenger ship used for pleasure voyages and cruising has become a major part of the tourism industry in most advanced countries. The highest priority of the cruise trip is the safety and comfort of its passengers. Though the cruise lines take every appropriate measure to ensure that their guests are safe and experience enjoyable vacations it is hard to fulfill all passenger’s personnel requirement with limited number of crews. Generally, each passenger is issued an identification card which contains their digital photo and personal identification information on a magnetic strip that he or she must present when entering or leaving the ship. This technology allows the ship to know which guests and crew members are on board and which are not. However, this system has some limitations on functions and usage. To support each passenger as his or her personal liking, additional number of crews or some kind of new system is needed. In this paper, the crew support system based on sensor network using wireless and wired communication technologies was conceptually studied. To design the system, PLC system and Zigbee based passenger detection, classification algorithm has studied experimentally. By using this system, crews can serve passengers more closely and personally with less effort.
