Animated Buoys, Markers, and Winds

Navigational aids, buoys, light houses, and any other important markers are shown with accurate colors and blink patterns. Display options can be controlled from a smartphone during setup, and features can be individually enabled and customized.

The Coolest Tide Clock

We developed our tide clock to provide loads of great information with just a glance. On the corner of every chart, you can see:

  • Current time
  • High tide time
  • Low tide time
  • Tide magnitude (color coded)
  • Tide direction (ebb and flood)

During the animated forecast, this clock moves to indicate the time during the forecast, and can be paused for more detailed analysis.

Packed with information

  • Track real time cargo ship locations within the harbor.
  • Live weather conditions.
  • Lighthouse and buoy channel markers with actual blink sequences.
  • Wave height tracker
  • Wind direction and speed

Interactive and Dynamic

With just a wave of the hand, the built in gesture sensor can be used to:

  • Turn the map on and off
  • Switch between live and forecast conditions
  • Pause the forecast for analysis

In addition, as the lighting in your room changes throughout the day, the integrated ambient light sensor will automatically adjust the brightness of the display.
