Smart Mooring Buoy with Load Monitoring

The netH2O can function as an intelligent mooring buoy that continuously monitors the forces on your mooring line and provides proactive safety alerts.

Load Monitoring & Alerts:

• Real-Time Load Measurement: Continuously monitor tension on the mooring line
• Automatic Alerts: Receive instant notifications when loads exceed preset thresholds
• Historical Data: Track loading patterns over time to assess mooring system integrity
• Customizable Thresholds: Set alert levels based on your specific mooring configuration

AI-Powered Predictive Alerts:

• Machine learning algorithms analyze environmental conditions and loading patterns
• Forecast future loads based on weather and sea state predictions
• Receive advance warnings of potentially dangerous loading conditions
• Enable proactive mooring adjustments before problems occur

This is particularly valuable for vessels moored in exposed locations, superyachts, research vessels, and floating platforms where mooring integrity is critical.

Detachment & Security Alerts

Sleep soundly knowing you'll be immediately notified if your vessel detaches from the mooring or if the mooring detaches from its fixed point.

Security Features:

• Instant Detachment Alerts: GPS monitoring detects if the buoy (and attached vessel) moves unexpectedly
• Mooring Failure Detection: Identifies if the mooring separates from its fixed anchor point
• 24/7 Monitoring: Continuous surveillance whether you're aboard, ashore, or away
• Multiple Notification Methods: Alerts via SMS, email, or app notifications

This feature is invaluable when sleeping aboard at an anchorage, when your boat is unattended at a mooring, or for monitoring valuable assets like superyachts.

Advanced Anchor Buoy with Environmental Monitoring

Deploy the netH2O as an advanced, connected anchor buoy that provides comprehensive situational awareness:

Environmental Sensing:

• Wave Monitoring: Real-time wave height and period measurements
• Current Tracking: Continuous current speed and direction data
• Water Temperature: Temperature monitoring for comfort and safety
• GPS Position: Precise location tracking detects any anchor dragging

Anchor Movement Detection:

• High-precision GPS monitoring tracks the anchor buoy position
• Detects even small movements that may indicate dragging
• Alerts you immediately if the anchor shifts from its set position
• Historical track shows swing radius and movement patterns

Know instantly if your anchor is dragging—whether you're on deck, below, or ashore—enabling rapid response before grounding or collision occurs.

Underwater Camera Integration (Optional)

For the ultimate in anchoring awareness, the netH2O can be equipped with an underwater webcam connected to your vessel via WiFi (where depth and visibility permit).

Visual Inspection Capabilities:

• Check Anchor Set: Visually verify the anchor is properly set in the seabed
• Monitor Anchor Position: Check anchor orientation and condition without diving
• Assess Bottom Conditions: Observe the seafloor and assess holding conditions
• View Underwater Environment: Observe marine life and underwater conditions
• Troubleshoot Issues: Identify fouled anchors or entanglement without sending a diver

This capability increases security, improves operational efficiency, and provides fascinating insights into the underwater environment around your vessel.
