Device, method, and program for controlling ship body
A ship body control device is provided, which includes a sensor, a propelling force controller, and an autopilot controller. The sensor measures a speed of a ship. The propelling force controller controls a propelling force of the ship. The autopilot controller outputs an instruction to reduce the propelling force to the propelling force controller, when a condition of canceling an automatic cruise in which the speed of the ship matches with an automatic ship speed setting is satisfied.

a user setting interface configured to accept an instruction of a return of the ship to a returning position,
wherein the processing circuitry determines that the condition of canceling the automatic cruise is satisfied when the instruction of the return is accepted.
8. The ship body control device of claim 7 , wherein the processing circuitry performs a return control to the returning position in which the ship speed is slower than the automatic ship speed setting after the automatic cruise is canceled.
9. The ship body control device of claim 1 , wherein the sensor detects a target object around the ship, and
wherein the processing circuitry determines that the condition of canceling the automatic cruise is satisfied when the target object is detected in a risky area around the ship.
10. The ship body control device of claim 1 , wherein the sensor measures a posture of the ship, and
wherein the processing circuitry determines that the condition of canceling the automatic cruise is satisfied when the posture of the ship is a risky posture during a cruise.
11. The ship body control device of claim 1 , further comprising:
a user setting interface configured to accept an operation of a forced termination of the automatic cruise,
wherein the processing circuitry determines that the condition of canceling the automatic cruise is satisfied when the operation of the forced termination is accepted.
12. The ship body control device of claim 1 , wherein the processing circuitry stores a time to a deceleration start at which the speed of the ship is reduced, and determines that the condition of canceling the automatic cruise is satisfied when the time to the deceleration start is lapsed.
13. The ship body control device of claim 1 , wherein the processing circuitry estimates an estimated time of arrival to a destination point of a route set by the automatic cruise.
14. The ship body control device of claim 13 , wherein the processing circuitry determines a heading change area and a deceleration rate of the automatic cruise based on the automatic ship speed setting, a heading change angle, and a heading change rate.
15. The ship body control device of claim 13 , wherein the processing circuitry determines a destination area according to a destination point of the automatic cruise based on the automatic ship speed setting.
16. The ship body control device of claim 13 , wherein the processing circuitry re-estimates and updates the estimated time of arrival when the processing circuitry outputs the instruction to reduce the propelling force from the automatic cruise setting.
17. The ship body control device of claim 1 , further comprising:
a user setting interface configured to accept an instruction of a return of the ship to a returning position,
wherein the processing circuitry determines that the condition of canceling the automatic cruise is satisfied when the instruction of the return is accepted.
