BoatPilot - first free integrated marine Navigation Service with augmented reality capabilities
BoatPilot platform offers a convenient and functional navigation system for private yacht owners. In general, this market already has navigational systems popular with yachting enthusiasts, but their significant drawback is that they were originally developed for the military and commercial spheres, and therefore have a lot of unnecessary information and inconvenient interface. Such information should be constantly updated, and the outdated system does not allow doing it quickly, which is why the users periodically experience difficulties.
BoatPilot is a radically new navigation service, suitable for private owners and commercial yachting. The platform is directly connected to databases, where it can both quickly receive the necessary information, and send it. This service is interesting not only for users, but also for manufacturers of navigation equipment, where they can integrate all available features.
It is also important that the service is free and includes all the necessary functions. So, there is BoatPilot navigator, Pocket Skipper application, as well as a module that collects data from on-board systems. BoatPilot includes all the full functions of the navigation system, and Pocket Skipper offers additional, no less important functions and opportunities - rental, brokerage services, search for fellow travelers and the sale of unique tours. The hardware module, via a Wi-Fi signal, collects up-to-date data on the state of the ship's on-board systems and transfers them to BoatPilot system.
The important components of BoatPilot platform are the following:
• Cloud platform for collective work with geo-data with the function of their storage;
• Ability to collect and visualize in real time geo-location data from vessels equipped with GPS and GLONASS sensors, and store and synchronize these data on the service;
• BoatGod module, which works both in Android system and iOS. So with the help of a smartphone you can get information on the work of all ship systems in a timely manner and, if necessary, manage them;
• A unique navigation system that operates in augmented reality mode. With the help of special glasses you can simultaneously see all the necessary data without distracting on control panel. Also, the system provides tips for optimal further actions (along the trajectory of calls, danger signs, etc.) Together, this makes it comfortable and safe to work both at night and during unfavorable meteorological conditions.
Since July 2017, when the beta version of BoatPilot was launched, 35,000 users installed the application, which is very much, given the fact that the marketing support was minimal.
The main advantages of BoatPilot are the following:
- The first, truly unique and multifunctional system for private lovers of yachting and small commercial yachting;
- The most accurate data on navigation, as well as the main objects of the coastal zone;
- Augmented reality function for security and ease of control in all conditions;
- Databases, routes and visual content created directly by users.
BoatPilot works through its own NAVI token, which enables the platform to rent or book a vessel. It is planned to gradually reduce the number of tokens in order to increase the demand for them and, consequently, their cost.
It is planned to issue 341 737 610 tokens, and they are distributed as follows:
- 61.25% for sale;
- 20% for the team;
- 12.25% for bonuses;
- 3.5% for the advisers;
- and 1.5% for ecosystem, including marketing, PR and Bounty.
Sale will be held in 2 stages, the first of which is already over, it ended on February 28 this year. The price of one NAVI token is 0.07 dollars. You can use BTC, ETC, BCN and LTC as payment method.
Thus, BoatPilot is a unique navigation system for private and small commercial yachting, combining the best modern technologies for convenience and safety, as well as providing significant benefits for users.
