System for guiding a connected boat equipped with an on-board system communicating with a remote server in order to modify its route plan
11597480 · 2023-03-07 · ·

A system for guiding a boat, which includes the boat and a remote server. The boat includes a central unit linked to a user interface, a receiver for receiving data transmitted by at least one electronic tag affixed to a device of the boat and to a radio device for bidirectional communication with the remote server. The central unit transmits information resulting from the data transmitted by the tags, the current position and the route plan of the boat via the radio device to the server, and receives route plan modification data, which are displayed on the user interface, from this server. In this way, the operator of the boat is able to gain knowledge of the movement of nearby craft and of possible collision risks. Further, the boat may include on-board connected objects that communicate with the central unit in order to determine whether devices are missing on board.

AUTOMATIC NAVIGATION OF A MARINE ENVIRONMENT AREA
20220315178 · 2022-10-06 ·

Systems and methods for automatic navigation of a marine environment area are detailed herein. A system for navigating a marine area includes a display, a processor, and a memory including a computer program code. The computer program code, when executed, causes, on the display, presentation of a chart including at least a portion of a body of water; receives an input of at least one condition parameter associated with the desired marine environment; determines a portion of the body of water defined by the at least one condition; and displays the determined portion on the chart. The computer program code further, when executed, determines a traversal coverage corresponding to a watercraft; and determines a route to traverse the determined portion based on the traversal coverage of the watercraft such that an entirety of the determined portion is covered by the determined traversal coverage of the watercraft during the route.

Navigational guidance for crossing a boundary line

A navigation device is disclosed that provides navigational guidance to boats needing to cross a boundary line at a milestone event time. Port and starboard laylines and guidelines may be displayed with the boundary line using wind direction data. The port and starboard layline angles may change with the wind direction, while their lengths may represent a distance traversed by the boat tacking at the port and starboard layline angles for a target time period at a target speed. A predictor line may be displayed extending from the boat in the direction in which the boat is traveling and may have a length indicating a distance traversed by the boat at its current speed until the milestone event time. The predictor line length and color may provide feedback regarding whether the boat will cross the boundary too early or too late given its current speed and direction.

Deep-sea low-cost long-endurance collaborative navigation and positioning system

A deep-sea low-cost long-endurance collaborative navigation and positioning system. A shore-based monitoring center transmits a route planning solution to a wave glider. The wave glider follows an underwater vehicle to travel and feeds back state information of the wave glider and state information of the underwater vehicle to the shore-based monitoring center in real time. The shore-based monitoring center adjusts the route planning solution according to the state information in real time. The wave glider and the underwater vehicle are respectively equipped with an underwater acoustic communication machine. The wave glider obtains self location and time information through a satellite and transmits the location and time information to the underwater vehicle in an underwater acoustic communication manner, then the underwater vehicle calculates a horizontal distance between the underwater vehicle and the wave glider to assist a microelectromechanical system (MEMS) sensor of the underwater vehicle in navigation and positioning.
