Infotainment options abound aboard megayachts these days—so much so that owners and guests want more. Oculus Technologies, the company behind YachtEye and the super-cool Engine Room App, has added Odyss to the mix.
If you’re at this week’s Monaco Yacht Show, you can see a demo. At first glance, Odyss looks like a sophisticated time and date display. And in normal mode, it is. The design features current local time along with a world clock, plus sunrise and sunset information. Once you touch the screen, though, Odyss reveals that it’s actually an information-packed product.
Odyss can call up your yacht’s speed and heading, wind direction and speed, or even the sea and outside-air temperatures. Oculus Technologies will customize Odyss to include whatever data you wish. It can display a map, photos, videos, and CCTV feeds. It can further incorporate a stew-call feature, and display messages from the captain and crew about the day’s activities and menus. Of course, your yacht’s logo can be displayed as well.
Oculus Technologies says that Odyss operates silently, so it’s suitable for stateroom nightstands. It’s also suitable to add units elsewhere onboard, all linked to the same data to further integrate the infotainment experience.
Because Oculus Technologies customizes Odyss for each buyer, contact the company for pricing details.
