“The ship actually turned and we could all feel it, but the chart display and the crew saw only a straight line.”
Faint GPS signals were broadcast by the students from a spoofing device the size of a briefcase, aimed at the positioning system aerials of the ship. The authentic GPS signals were slowly overpowered by those transmitted from the spoofing device, after which the students had gained control over the yacht’s navigational system...the experiment taking place some 50 kilometres off the coast of Italy in international waters.
