Raymarine and Watchit have joined forces to introduce advanced anti-collision technology, combining algorithms and sensors inspired by the automotive industry to prevent collisions and groundings.
As part of this collaboration, Raymarine LightHouse Charts are now the official map supplier for Watchit, enhancing the system's accuracy and reliability to provide warnings before potential collisions occur.
Watchit utilizes cutting-edge algorithms and sensors to analyze boat data and offer preemptive collision alerts, contributing to a safer boating experience by helping to avoid accidents and groundings.
Michelle Hildyard, the vice president of operations at Raymarine, emphasized the company's commitment to enhancing boaters' safety and enjoyment on the water through seamless integration of new products and technologies, particularly benefiting Axiom users.
This partnership reflects the ongoing trend of systems integration in the recreational marine industry, leveraging technology to simplify and enhance the boating experience for both skippers and guests.
The Watchit-Raymarine integrated systems are currently available for compatible Raymarine Axiom chartplotters, offering boaters immediate access to improved collision control technology.
