AZ-SMART MARINE system benefits
Better vessel management, safety and operational efficiency through smart technology
- Details
- Category: Benefits
- Utilizes a globally covered network, which can be GSM-based mobile internet, satellite internet, StarLink, etc., and not LPWAN IoT network, which has limited coverage, for instance, in the mainland of islands. Internet connectivity has become a basic necessity on a ship.
- Scalable as needed, with easy integration of over 90% of existing marine and household smart devices currently supported.
- Capable of communicating with all marine systems, such as NMEA2000, NMEA 0183, Scheiber multibloc, ZigBoat, Victron Energy, Raymarine, etc., as well as industrial communication platforms used on ships, like CAN bus, MOD bus, making it easy to integrate devices like the LiFePo4 battery management system (BMS).
- Newly introduced marine and industrial equipment can be easily integrated retroactively, thanks to the system's architecture.
- Thanks to the local mini server, decisions are made on-site, independent of the cloud, and automation and convenience functions work even with an internet connection.
- az-smart marine can also function as an alarm system while always providing the option for manual operation, complementing the factory-installed system

- GPS tracking and defining geo-fences on the map, allowing the system to send real-time alerts when a ship enters a restricted area.
- Real-time monitoring of battery charge and temperature, as well as tracking of tank levels and fuel consumption.
- Management of vouchers on the ship's router's guest Wi-Fi network (e.g., 10 GB for 1 week), which can be restarted as needed.
- Displaying the route on a map in PDF or JPG format, showing the path taken by the guest with distance and speed data (average speed, maximum speed).
- Detecting collisions with an accelerometer and sending a system message to operators with GPS coordinates.
- Diagnostics provide real-time data and logs for motor operation, facilitating documentation of errors and their location in case of faults or accidents caused by potential customers.
- Remote data monitoring and diagnostics allow the service team to proactively schedule maintenance, minimizing downtime by preparing for quick repairs.
- The smart system's convenience features can serve as additional sources of revenue or unique selling points for charter businesses.

- Remote control of both high and low voltage consumers, remote power supply management.
- Real-time monitoring of battery charge and temperature, with intervention if necessary (e.g., starting a generator, disconnecting a battery), and individual cell monitoring for LiFePo4 batteries.
- Management of IP cameras, with both silent and audible alarm functions, sending alerts with camera photos in case of an alarm.
- Automated comfort and safety functions, defining the usage modes of the boat (e.g., port, port - owner away, sailing, anchoring/buoy), and automatically switching consumers and equipment to the appropriate state for each mode.
- Comprehensive data monitoring and diagnostics to support maintenance, saving on service costs.
- Fuel consumption measurement, both hourly and per mile, with the help of 4+1 counters
- GPS tracking and motion logging.
- Automatic power supply for high-voltage consumers (stove, air conditioning, coffee maker, microwave, etc.) using shore power, an inverter, or a generator.
- Monitoring of solar panel systems.
- Temperature-controlled heating and dehumidifier management in winter mode.
- Remote access to data from bottom water sensors, smoke detectors, CO, CO2, Pb gas detectors, door and window opening sensors, and defining alarm processes.
- Control of the boat's systems from a smartphone.
