Yes, SEA.AI consists of thermal and color cameras and can therefore see during the night. Even in bad weather situations the thermal cameras will be able to perform much better than the human eye. Taking into account that a crew member is usually helming, navigating, or just busy with other things – SEA.AI will continue to keep an eye and act as the “barrel man” on top of the mast, giving the alarm when a potential hazard appears.

It depends on the product : on Sailing models, up to 6 users can connect simultaneously without speed loss, and 2 users on the Sentry.
Using latest camera technology in combination with artificial intelligence, SEA.AI detects and classifies objects to alert crews early and reliably about objects on the surface of the water, day and night.
A Convolutional Neural Networksis (CNN) a class of artificial neural network that performs segmentation, classification, and detection for a myriad of applications such as maritime safety. Computer vision analyzes images, and then creates numerical representations of what it ‘sees’ using a CNN.
Thermal cameras, also known as infrared cameras, work by detecting and capturing the infrared radiation (heat) emitted by objects. Unlike visible light, which the human eye can perceive, infrared radiation is not visible to the naked eye. Thermal cameras use special sensors and optics to capture this infrared radiation and convert it into a visible image that represents the temperature differences across a scene.

Yes, the SEA.AI vision unit is waterproof (IP67) and has been tested in extreme conditions to ensure watertightness, temperature, shock, vibration, and salt water resistance. The lenses of the cameras carry a special coating for protection against the most extreme weather conditions and dirt.
Yes, all SEA.AI products can withstand at least forces of 10g. This is validated during durability tests with more than a 1 million cycles.
There is no user maintenance to be done unless your system endures long periods without rain. In that specific case, it might be necessary to clean lenses from time to time.
The SEA.AI System is compatible with the most common MFDs. Please get in touch with us to check compatibility.
