Haptic Maritime Controls

By establishing an intuitive information transfer through forces and vibrations in maritime controls, Smart-Ship is contributing to increased safety, sustainability and efficiency. Our technology allows operators to focus on their tasks while receiving valuable information through the ships controls. Such as feeling thresholds or warning vibrations when the operator is encountering dangerous situations or simply communicating an eco-friendly sailing speed.

Since our solution is a combination of hard- and software it is very dynamic, e.g. it allows for:

• A new standard: We consistently add value by lowering unnecessary fuel and maintenance expenses, improving operational efficiency, and enhancing overall safety at sea.
• Contributing to the energy transition: by ensuring optimal operator interaction and alleviating the personnel shortage through Facilitating remote or (semi) autonomous shipping and Compatibility with hybrid or fully electric drive systems.
• Custom solutions: Once you have our hardware aboard, our custom-built functionalities can support the operator in any type of operation through tailored functionalities and requiring no downtime to install
• High degree of autonomy: Through an intuitive user-interface, fleet managers and operators can adjust settings like friction levels, limit zones and warnings according to personal preference (both onboard and remotely).
