Abstract (en)

A motion compensating gangway (1) comprises a proximal end (4), a distal end (8), a walkway (2) between these, an actuator (26, 28, 30) for moving the distal end (8) relative to the proximal end (4) upon command from a control unit, at least one sensor (32) for determining a condition of contact between the distal end (8) and a separate structure, and a contact mode wherein the control unit controls the distal end (8) position relative to the proximal end (4), based on at least a signal from a motion reference unit and a signal from the sensor.
