Abstract: Systems and methods for augmented-reality-based marine navigation. An electronic controller plots a navigational route between a current geospatial position of a host vessel and a target destination of the host vessel. The navigational route is plotted as a series of waypoints. The electronic controller receives an electronic transmission from at least one nearby ship indicative of a current position of the at least one nearby ship (e.g, an MS transmission) and updates the navigational route based at least in part on the received electronic transmission. A graphical representation of the updated navigational route and a graphical indication of the current position of the at least one nearby ship (e.g., a conformal overlay of the at least one nearby ship) are then displayed on a head-worn augmented reality display device.
