THE PROBLEM & THE SOLUTION
Interact with the cards below to explore the details.
THE CHALLENGE
High-performance sailing instrumentation is traditionally complex and prohibitively expensive. This leaves most clubs, schools, and amateur athletes without access to objective data, forcing coaches to rely solely on visual intuition rather than precise metrics.
OUR SOLUTION
NaviSmart is an affordable, high-precision onboard monitoring system. It captures essential dynamic metrics and transmits them in real-time to the coach's support boat, enabling instant, data-driven tactical and technical corrections during training.
WHAT MAKES US INNOVATIVE?
ZERO-DROPOUT TRANSMISSION
Instead of relying on unstable Wi-Fi on the water, we created a Radio Bridge (nRF24 Gateway + Wi-Fi). The boat transmits telemetry via long-range radio, isolating critical transmission from network dropouts.
ULTRA-LOW LATENCY
The data is not sent as heavy text but is instead packaged in a compact byte structure. This ensures a 250 kbps rate with less than 2ms of latency, enabling technical corrections at the exact moment the action takes place.
UNCOMPROMISED ACCESSIBILITY
We prove that cutting-edge technology doesn't have to be a luxury. We drastically reduced production costs by using ESP32 microcontrollers and aerospace-grade sensors, enabling clubs and independent athletes to elevate their competitive level.

HOW IT WORKS
From installation to live coaching in three simple steps.
1. Install the Device
Secure the NaviSmart onto the boat. The hardware is completely waterproof, robust, and specifically designed for quick plug-and-play setup.
2. Sail & Record
Once on the water, the internal high-precision sensors automatically begin capturing metrics like speed, position, heel, trim and heading.
3. Analyze Live
The device transmits data in real-time. Coaches monitor the live dashboard from the support boat to make instant tactical corrections.
Onboard Tactical Dashboard
Focus on the wind. Track the performance.
A compact, high-contrast IPS display mounted directly on the deck. Powered by an advanced dual-MCU architecture, it provides the sailor with zero-latency feedback on speed, heading, and dynamic metrics without needing to look away from the action.
- High-Brightness IPS Screen (>800 nits)
- IP67 "Zero-Hole" Waterproof Design
- Real-Time Deterministic Feedback
Real-Time Coach Gateway
Stop guessing. Start measuring.
The NaviSmart interface provides a clean, intuitive dashboard designed to be easily read under direct sunlight on the support boat. Receive live tactical telemetry via a dedicated radio link, and get instant insights to make race-winning decisions.
- Long-Range RF Link (up to 1000m)
- Live Multi-Variable Telemetry
- Post-Session Wi-Fi Sync (Wireless Data Extraction)
The 'NaviSmart' Telemetry Node
Robust. Waterproof. Plug-and-Play.
The core of the system is our marine-grade polycarbonate enclosure. Engineered with a strict 'Zero-Hole' policy and a transparent viewport for the display, this rugged unit attaches non-invasively to the dinghy. Inside, an asymmetrical coprocessor setup captures the boat's dynamics via high-precision inertial sensors, logging every maneuver without hindering performance.
- Marine-Grade Polycarbonate Enclosure
- 9-Axis Sensor Fusion & GNSS Tracking
- Asymmetrical Coprocessor Architecture
