Avikus Partners with Savvy Navvy

Avikus.us, HD Hyundai’s autonomous navigation technology developer, has joined forces with cartography innovator Savvy Navvy to add powerful functionality to its recently released NEUBOAT Dock II.

Designed for yachts over 40-feet such as sportfishing vessels, power catamarans, center consoles and sailing vessels, NEUBOAT Dock II gives boaters a bird’s eye view for easy docking, single or multiple camera views, object detection and a docking assist path. As part of the partnership, Savvy Navvy has provided the base map cartography for NEUBOAT Dock II.

NEUBOAT Dock II consists of a six-camera system based on Avikus’ advanced autonomous vessel technology. It offers a comprehensive 3D surround view, along with individual camera perspectives, to ensure safe and precise maneuvers during docking and navigation in confined spaces. Users can seamlessly pan around the 360-degree view, enhancing situational awareness and facilitating confident navigation in tight environments. It includes a dynamic virtual bumper, which is activated on the sections of the vessel that are closest to non-water objects for collision avoidance, as well as Docking Assist Guidance and a Home Point for intuitive return to a selected docking location and preferred docking position.

Savvy Navvy is a revolutionary, easy-to-use app that provides smart routing — giving users the optimal route and dynamic ETAs based on real-time data: departure time, chart information, weather conditions, tide, boat specifications and local regulations. Points of interest, including marina information, marine services and local businesses are also shown in the app helping users plan their journeys both online and offline. Available on Android, IOS, PC and Mac, Savvy Navvy and can be used on multiple devices and is available in both free and “premium” options with enhanced access and functionalities.
