[0002] The safe navigation of ships at sea is of crucial importance. The International Maritime Organization (IMO) has formulated a series of conventions, rules, resolutions, circulars and recommendations. Among them, the main rules and conventions regarding the sound and light signals for the safe navigation of ships are the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea (COLREG). The ship is equipped with an automatic controller for foghorns, which can enable the ship to have audible and visual signals to prompt collision avoidance safety information during navigation, thus bringing safety and economic benefits to the passenger and freight transportation of the navigating ships.

[0003] However, most of the foghorn controllers produced in China at present can only emit 5 kinds of automatic fog navigation sound signals and do not have light signals. Moreover, these 5 kinds of automatic fog navigation sound signals are generated by a motor driving a mechanical sequential control cam. The control signals generated in this way are difficult to debug, have low accuracy, poor reliability, poor integration and single function, and it is difficult to meet the requirements of international safe navigation at sea.
