Features:

  • Liquid Automation’s customised Google Earth interface presents a 3D model of the yacht, synchronising its position with the vessel’s real-time movements. Utilising a touch panel, users can virtually navigate from the yacht to its surroundings.

  • Navigation instrumentation is displayed on the touch panels, enabling guests to access yacht-related information such as boat speed, wind speed, wind direction, and water temperature.

  • Navigation sources are distributed via a 16 x 16 high-definition Digital Media Matrix to the Pilothouse and Flybridge screens. This fibre-based connectivity ensures complete optical isolation from the DC-powered screens.

  • The stereo image of the Owner’s Cabin follows the left and right orientation of the rotating TV.

  • The Crestron system communicates with Liquid Automation in the event of various faults. For instance, Crestron amps notify Liquid Automation of any speaker failures or when racks reach preset temperatures, automatically initiating shutdown and providing notifications.

  • A global system mute is activated in response to general alarms.
