Yachtica Monitoring and Control
Home automation applied to yachting, is basically what the Yachtica Integrated System offers, although very proprietary and expensive. But surely there will be a market for this product. It would be interesting to see, however, how technologies like ZigBee and Bluetooth will come along in the maritime market, possibly combined with less expensive software to control them.
"For instance, the master of the vessel shown can not only manage the VIP lighting from anywhere aboard but can also set up scenarios like "film" whereby the dimming, air conditioning, power blinds, etc. can all be set with one-touchscreen -or remote control- button push. Then, while watching the film, he or she could be advised of genset and anchor issues, even take remote action as needed. Oh, and this omniscience can extend off the yacht via cellular."
