Lookout+
An optical radar for detecting vessels, animals, navigation markers and hazards to help you navigate the waters safely.
Suitable for boats of all sizes and types
Realtime detection, classification and tracking for boats, markers and marine life
Advanced data-fusion between Optical, IR, radar (ARPA) and AIS sensors
Compatible with any pre-existing cameras
Outputs detections to autonomy systems such as GAMA
Range and bearing estimation for tracked targets
Customizable alerts and notifications

Detection Ranges:
The values within this table have been generated utilising a range of conservative assumptions, the exact performance of Lookout+ for your vessel and application may vary.
Class | ~Width x Height | ~Detection Range | ~Classification Range |
Swimmers | 0.5 x 0.5m | 170m | 80m |
Markers | 1 x 2m | 420m | 220m |
Marine Mammals | 2 x 2m | 670m | 330m |
Small Boats | 10 x 3m | 1.8km | 900m |
Large Boats | 20 x 5m | 3.3km | 1.7km |
Container ships | 250 x 50m | 10km | 10km |

How It Works
Step 1
Install Lookout+ on your own GPU accelerated computer
ORInstall the pre-configured Lookout+ Compute unit on your vessel
Step 2
Connect to existing cameras
ORInstall Lookout compatible cameras on your vessel
Step 3
Configure alerts matching your objectives such as unmarked hazards, marine mammals, or other vessels
Step 4
Conduct safer and more efficient maritime operations
Up to 360° FoV
A human lookout can usually only focus on a 30 degree segment of ocean. Lookout+ supercharges this. It scans a 90° segment and reports its findings. Multiple units can be combined for 360 coverage.
Whale Safety
Automatic alerts when whales are seen nearby. Lookout+ helps prevent collisions and protects marine life.
