Oceanus is a hardware and software platform designed and developed to provide useful information to the crew of a racing yacht.The key features of the proposed solution are its reliability, the possibility to extend and customise it, and its context-awareness, which simplifies its usage in an intelligent way.The target users of the system are both beginners who want a navigation aid, but cannot afford the expensive and often overly complicated commercial systems available on the market, and more experienced sailors who can benefit from an open and customisable instrument to study and fine-tune the setup and performance of their sailing boats. Furthermore, Oceanus strives to be as much as possible a low-cost architecture, both in software and hardware requirements.
