The power of VHF and AIS combined
Cortex is the world's first VHF with high speed SOTDMA AIS transponder technology, making your boat visible to others
A built-in heading sensor tells other vessels your direction, helping them more accurately predict potential collisions
Be armed with critical information about vessels, AIS marks (AtoNs) and man overboard devices on your MFD, mobile or Cortex handset
Collision Avoidance & One-Touch DSC
Cortex continuously calculates crossing situations and generates collision alarms for critical action
Alerts if your anchor is dragging, and activates MOB alarms for immediate retrieval
Instead of ambiguous bells or tones, Cortex sounds the alarm with voiced alerts that escalate until acknowledged
Continuously view crossing situations, navigation light sectors, and complete trial maneuvers while talking on the VHF radio
Initiate direct calls (DSC) with other vessels by simply tapping the vessel on your handset touchscreen
Initiate VHF calls to friends or quickly hail another vessel when every second counts
Monitor
Cortex combines built-in sensors and NMEA2000 connectivity with free basic monitoring
Using cellular connectivity, you can view twice-daily updates of power, location, wind, depth, bilge, temperature, and more on their smartphones
The Cortex Monitor Premium subscription unlocks real-time vessel status, instant alerts, and device control for boat systems like refrigerators, icemakers, lights, or heaters
Anchor Watch
Sleep soundly or explore with abandon knowing that your boat is exactly where you anchored it
By combining your position and heading, Cortex will determine if your anchor drags
If your boat moves outside your anchor swing radius the alarm will sound on Cortex handsets and your smartphone
Receive alerts while ashore via the Cortex Monitor App on your smartphone
Cortex will keep watch and alert you about changes in water depth, wind speed, or direction while you are anchored
