FLIR announces Raymarine eS Series multifunction navigation displays
WILSONVILLE, Ore. – FLIR Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: FLIR) announced the release of the Raymarine eS Series line of HybridTouch multifunction displays. Powered by Raymarine’s LightHouse II user interface, the eS Series includes three high-performance navigation displays.
The eS Series with HybridTouch gives captains the choice of touch screen interaction or full control using the sculpted keypad and multifunction rotary controller. The keypad provides enhanced tactile feel, while the multifunction controller offers menu and cursor control. Captains can also access eS Series displays from their smartphone or tablet anywhere on board using eS Series’ integrated Wi-Fi and Raymarine mobile apps.
The eS Series features a choice of 7-inch, 9-inch and 12-inch displays, each with a glass bridge-style design that blends with today’s helm stations, allowing for both low profile console and a flush mounting option.
“From both software and hardware perspective, we engineered the Raymarine eS Series to deliver a simple, yet powerful user experience,” says Grégoire Outters, vice president and general manager of FLIR Maritime. “Users will immediately enjoy the responsive HybridTouch interaction, and our intuitive LightHouse II user interface allows both new boaters and experienced mariners to master eS Series quickly.”
Raymarine’s eS Series features optional CHIRP DownVision technology and vector and raster chart support from Navionics, C-MAP by Jeppesen, and Raymarine’s expanding library of LightHouse charts. The eS Series also feature a built-in 10Hz GPS/GLONASS receiver for the fast position updates and satellite acquisition.
Captains can also customize their eS Series system with high-performance network sensors, including HD Color radar, professional CHIRP sonar, IP video and thermal night vision. The eS Series can expand with support for multiple displays, Evolution autopilot control, entertainment, engine and digital switching integration options.
