An advisory system of a vessel that monitors variables of a vessel system inclusive of systems and subsystems that are used to operate the vessel. The advisory system may use machine-learning to learn from an operator (i) whether or not two variables are related to one another, and (ii) likelihood that a variable will reach a threshold, and, optionally, time until reaching the threshold. The system may receive operator feedback (i) to indicate whether the two variables are related to one another, and (ii) whether a behavior of the variable is normal or not normal. Thereafter, if a determination that the same two variables are related to one another and behaving in a similar manner, provide notification to the operator of the behavior. In response to determining that the variable is behaving (e.g., trending) in a similar manner that is not normal, providing a notification to the operator.

An ejectable container that includes: six sides formed as a cuboid; an ejection mechanism; a battery within the container; a GPS locator; and fire proof materials for structural components.

A system and computer-implemented method include a wireless network hub configured to forward received sensor readings to a sensor analysis system. One or more sensor units coupled to the wireless network hub and affixed to a structure are configured to wirelessly transmit data to the wireless network hub at a first time frequency, and, in response to a detected danger to the structure, wirelessly transmit sensor readings to the wireless network hub at a second time frequency greater than the first time frequency.

The practice of this invention enables saving a life. A passive distress alert for distressed vessel in water is provided. The self-activating alert is positioned on or near hull bottom zone and distress message is at least partially presented, without human or mechanical, electronic or other trigger, when vessel is keel over or in other overturned positioned and can indicate relative percent keel over. The alert reflects natural and artificial light and/or has components which are fluorescent, with or without special black light, either at day or night to present a distress message to a detector. Detector can be an aided or unaided human eye, camera, bar code reader, or other alphabetic or numerical character or symbol electronic recognition device. Distress message can be SOS, MOB, HELP, CQD, R&R, MAYDAY and other local or universal distress messages or combinations thereof or special distress alert comprising bars, dots, dashes and other symbols. A vessel comprising a passive distress alert is disclosed.

A system and method for managing information related to marine activities and selectively sharing such information is provided. The system is designed to collect environmental data and create buoy profiles that may be analyzed by users to scout environmental conditions that may be conducive to catching fish in certain geolocations. Buoy profiles are updated in real time by fisherman using the system. The system is also designed to collect information pertaining to a catch and create an activity profile that may be analyzed by users to scout optimal geolocations in which to catch fish. A user's activity profiles may be shared with other users or kept private depending on permission levels within the system. Additionally, the system is designed to alert users of dangerous weather conditions and optimal fishing geolocations based on the buoy profiles and environmental states created by the system.

Various aspects of a watercraft with a controllable imaging device are disclosed herein. The watercraft includes a rotatable housing provided in a recess located underneath the watercraft. The recess further includes a roller assembly to movably engage the rotatable housing within the recess. An imaging device is positioned within the rotatable housing. One or more control commands are received by the imaging device from an electronic device to enable capture of one or more images.

A system and method that controls the evacuation of fluid from a sea vessel and configured to prevent turning off the bilge pump during periods of water sloshing. The invention provides a control unit that is adaptable to any size vessel or bilge pump based on a learned experience gained by sensory information.

A mounting device of a signal checking apparatus for an unmanned marine observation apparatus may comprise: a main body; a fixture that is detachably connected to the unmanned marine observation apparatus; and a signal checking apparatus holder that extends in at least one direction and is formed to mount a signal checking apparatus on one side thereof, wherein as the fixture is connected to a portion of the unmanned marine observation apparatus, the signal checking apparatus mounted on the signal checking apparatus holder allows the unmanned marine observation apparatus to check signal transmission of the unmanned marine observation apparatus at a fixed position with respect to a portion of the unmanned marine observation apparatus.
