The TIMEZERO folks have leveraged their relationship with FURUNO to allow the 1 st Watch Wireless Radar to also be used with their app. The FURUNO product supports its own radar app which is ok but it only shows radar imagery and no overlay on a chart. The version works with the FURUNO 1st Watch Wireless Radar solution which itself is a unique product that allows a wireless radar system to be used with an iPad. TZ iBoat is the latest version of TIMEZERO’s mobile app for iOS and this version adds some new unique capabilities for iPad-based navigation.
Multifunction chartplotter displays have allowed you to overlay radar and AIS on a navigation chart for some time but these systems tend to be fairly expensive and can require complicated wiring scenarios to accommodate integrating a modern radar with the chartplotter and the AIS system.Ī new solution from TIMEZERO aka Nobeltec now allows you to combine charting, AIS and radar on an Apple iPad. While Automatic Identification Systems (AIS) go a long way towards increasing vessel safety and helping to prevent vessel collisions, many boaters also like to use radar for detecting vessels and other floating objects such as aids to navigation that do not have an AIS transponder. This article will be maintained for existing customers who need to refer to the guidance in this document. PLEASE NOTE: Due to numerous product changes that have taken place since this article was written, we are no longer supporting this solution.
