The signals are made with hand-held flags, rods, disks, paddles, or occasionally bare or gloved hands held in specific positions according to an alphabetic code. Semaphore systems were adopted and widely used in the maritime world during the 19th century. Semaphore is still employed at sea today; it is acceptable for emergency communication “I am nearing a bend where another vessel may be obscured in daylight, and at night, when lighted wands instead of flags are used. At sea, the semaphore flags are coloured red and yellow (the OSCAR flag), while on land, they are white and blue by an intervening obstruction.” (the PAPA flag).
