Bringing our Award-Winning Watchkeeper to FLIBS 2025

We’re thrilled to bring our award-winning Watchkeeper system to the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show (FLIBS 2025), taking place from October 29 to November 2.

Why FLIBS Matters

FLIBS is the world’s largest in-water boat show, making it the ideal place to connect with the boating community and showcase the impact of AI-powered situational awareness.

Following our Innovation Route Award win at the Cannes Yachting Festival, this event is the next major stop in our global journey to bring cutting-edge safety solutions to more boaters.

Meet Watchkeeper: Smart Safety from Dusk to Dawn

Watchkeeper is designed to make advanced safety and awareness available to all. Its modular design ranges from entry-level optical systems to high-end three-camera thermal configurations, with prices starting at $4,990 USD.

At its core, Watchkeeper combines thermal and optical cameras with real-time AI processing. This onboard assistant continuously monitors the area around your vessel, spotting hazards that radar, AIS, or the human eye might miss.

Powerful Object Recognition with Machine Learning

Our AI has been trained on millions of maritime images. It recognizes and classifies objects like:

  • Floating debris

  • Small unlit boats

  • Marine mammals

  • Buoys

  • People overboard

Once an object is identified, the system calculates risk levels and triggers audible and visual alerts across MFDs, bridge displays, or mobile devices. Whether cruising coastal waters or heading offshore, Watchkeeper is your extra set of intelligent eyes.

AI-Powered Safety for Every Vessel

Whether you’re outfitting a newbuild or retrofitting an existing boat, Watchkeeper fits right in. We support installations on:


Beyond collision avoidance, Watchkeeper strengthens onboard security with 24/7, 360° thermal surveillance and can automatically detect a person overboard in real time.


Protecting Marine Life Responsibly

We’re also advancing marine mammal detection. By identifying visual signatures like a whale’s distinctive “blow,” our system helps you navigate responsibly in sensitive marine habitats—protecting both wildlife and your vessel.

Maritime Multi-Object Tracking: How AI Identifies Every Object on the Water

Detection tells you what is on the water. Multi-Object Tracking tells you what each contact is, where it came from, and where it is going — for every object in the scene, simultaneously. That is the difference between a snapshot and operational intelligence.
