Smart Ship© Hub launches $600 vessel data logger

Smart Ship Hub has launched an onboard data logger priced at approximately US$600, aiming to reduce the cost traditionally associated with vessel digitalisation.

The Onboard Gateway captures high-frequency operational data from a vessel's main engine, diesel generators, Main Operating Panel (MOP), boilers, flow meters, shaft power meters, navigation systems, cargo consoles, and other onboard equipment. It also comes with an option of edge intelligence, built-in analytics, and data intelligence for fuel, hull, engine, and cargo performance.

"The industry has spent years discussing digitalisation, AI and standardised reporting, but all of those ambitions depend on one thing: access to trusted data, in an industry standard format. We believe the biggest barrier has never been analytics; it has been low-cost data collection, collation and telemetry," said Joy Basu, Chief Executive Officer of Smart Ship Hub.
