| Function | The new raspAIS from Weatherdock is equipped with a latest generation 2-channelreceiver for parallel and persistent reception of the two AIS standard frequencies. |
|---|
| The unit picks up all kind of AIS signals: AIS Class A, AIS Class B, AIS SART, AIS MOB as well as AtoN signals will be received out of the vicinity. |
| A low power consumption management ensures that as less power as possible will be used running the system. |
| The collected data will be interpreted and forwarded to a connected mobile device for displaying on an electronic chart. |
| As the central basic component, a Raspberry Pi® Modell 3B is doing a perfect job in the background. Due to the wide range of possible connectivity, received AIS data can be forwarded via wifi or LAN connection. |
| Highlights | Real parallel AIS reception mode on both AIS frequencies (161,025 MHz + 162,025 MHz) |
