Marine Technology

Marine technology is a relative new specialization for Emit Software.
We focus on:

Autopilot Systems for Boats

Emit has developed a self-steering device with extended functionality:

  • assistance of the bow thruster in case of low speed
  • sending an alert via VHF and turning the boat in circles in case of soloist man-overboard situation
  • heading can be based on electronic compass, but also on GPS only
  • low energy consumption
  • Android-app for extensive control

Automatic Identification System (AIS) applications

Emit is applying AIS technology in knowledge based systems for:

  • route planning on waterways
  • optimal traffic control for locks
  • track and trace in case of boat theft
  • management information for law enforcement and harbor control

Emit contributed AIS data to MarineTraffic for many years.
