Target Audience
Ship engineers and deck officers working in fast-paced, high-stakes maritime environments
Pain point
Hard to access live equipment data; fixed screens limit mobility and awareness
Personal goals
Gain clear, immediate visual insight into vessel systems, reduce errors, and perform tasks more efficiently and safely
