Mobile Navigation: SeaPad
Image you are Captain, working in your cabin. There are a few things you want to finish, before you go to the bridge to head into the next port. The officer on watch has everything under control, but you want to monitor the navigation progress.
Say you are Captain, working in your cabin. There are a few things you want to finish, before you go to the bridge to head into the next port. The officer on watch has everything under control, but you want to monitor the navigation progress. For piece of mind that you won't be late.
How cool would it be if you could monitor this directly from your cabin. Or, better yet, from anywhere onboard.
We have developed an iPad, equipped with navigation software that has all the features of your ECDIS system.
How would you use such a piece of equipment? What flexibility can it bring to your work? Could it also be used as back-up for the ECDIS system? Is it compatible for inland navigation?
