This collaboration is designed to bridge the gap in situational awareness by combining sensors on the same interface, significantly enhancing safety, efficiency, and comfort for mariners worldwide.
"By integrating SEA.AI's advanced detection capabilities with our TZ Professional software, we are not just improving maritime safety; we are transforming how mariners interact with the sea. This partnership is a leap into the future of navigation, where technology acts as the mariner's sixth sense, constantly vigilant and reliable."
Over the past five years, SEA.AI has been at the forefront of maritime safety innovation with its AI-driven vision technology.
By integrating thermal and optical cameras with advanced machine learning algorithms, SEA.AI’s system detects and classifies floating objects in real time, even the ones that escape radar or AIS systems, such as boats without AIS, floating debris, and individuals overboard.
SEA.AI’s flagship product, Sentry, equipped with two thermal cameras and two low-light cameras, can for example automatically detect small buoys or people overboard from distances of up to 700 meters.
This real-time visual data analysis significantly enhances situational awareness, enabling early and reliable hazard identification by providing crucial warnings to crews.
"Our mission has always been to safeguard mariners using the power of technology. Working with TimeZero enables us to embed our vision directly into the navigation process and combine the data of other equipment onboard, enhancing every aspect of maritime voyages. Together, we're not just integrating systems; we're building the future of safe and intelligent navigation."
With almost 40 years of history and innovation, TimeZero has been the cornerstone of maritime software, providing full control and performance for thousands of mariners globally.
TZ Professional software is renowned for its superior control, performance, and comprehensive navigational features designed to meet the rigorous demands of professional mariners.
With innovations such as compatibility with TZ MAPS charts, Smart Radar mode, and new AIS features, TZ Professional offers an intuitive and powerful platform for maritime navigation.
Integrating SEA.AI Sentry’s object detection capabilities with TZ Pro Software, a comprehensive suite of navigational tools, allows mariners to:
This integration:
“The SEA.AI range of cameras has found its place in our catalogue as an innovative thermal and daytime detection solution. Thanks to Artificial Intelligence, SEA.AI cameras can be actively integrated into navigation safety equipment. At Pochon SA, we are proud to be part of this great adventure, particularly the integration of the Sentry camera into the TZ Professional software. We look forward to a long and fruitful collaboration.”
This partnership marks a big step forward for maritime watches, blending SEA.AI’s cutting-edge machine vision with TimeZero’s know-how in maritime software to establish a new safety standard and improve situational awareness at sea.
"For us, this partnership is about bringing the best possible experience to our customers, and we’re grateful to the SEA.AI team of engineers who have put their AI-based vision technology through its paces to be confident of full compatibility. Our team stands ready to support customers as they make new installations.”
While machine vision has found a solid place in the automotive sector, its adoption in the maritime industry is still under construction.
This collaboration between TimeZero and SEA.AI is essential to establish computer vision as a new safety standard in maritime operations.
As the partnership between SEA.AI and TimeZero progresses, both companies look forward to expanding their collaborative efforts from navigation assistance to include maritime surveillance capabilities.
This expansion will enhance their commitment to advancing industry standards in safety, security, and environmental protection.
Team Malizia’s new research vessel, Malizia Explorer, isn’t just another boat, it’s a science mission on a global scale. Built to travel remote oceans, collect critical environmental data, and raise awareness, the vessel combines cutting-edge instrumentation with a deep respect for the marine world.
SEA.AI and renowned French shipyard Nautitech Catamarans are strengthening their collaboration by offering SEA.AI’s machine vision systems as an option to Nautitech clients across their range of high-performance catamarans. This partnership reflects a shared commitment to delivering innovation, safety, and an exceptional sailing experience.
Reflecting the spirit of innovation and shared values between the two companies, intelligent safety electronics manufacturer SEA.AI and Italian sailing-wear brand Slam have partnered to supply high-quality apparel to SEA.AI crew members.
