Raymarine DockSense Alert
FLIR has announced the Raymarine DockSense Alert, a new addition to Raymarine’s intelligent docking technology line designed for a broader range of vessels.
Raymarine DockSense, unveiled in early 2019, is the recreational marine industry’s first intelligent object recognition and motion-sensing assisted docking solution.
Similar to the driver-assist capabilities of today’s modern automobiles, DockSense Alert detects, displays, and alerts the captain to obstacles around the boat using FLIR machine vision camera technology and video analytics. Live video feeds from each DockSense camera make it simple to see into blind spots and DockSense intelligent object recognition helps prevent scrapes, crashes and close calls.
DockSense Alert systems consist of an array of one to five DockSense stereo vision cameras and a central
Southern Formula 19
processor connected to a Raymarine Axiom display or network.
DockSense Alert accurately measures distances to the dock, pilings, and other moored vessels, and provides real-time visual indicators along with a live camera view on Raymarine Axiom multifunction displays.
DockSense Alert systems require a Raymarine Axiom display to operate and are available in one-, three- and five-camera packages.
