Furuno announces a small revolution in radar


Without really revealing anything, Furuno makes the buzz with a short video. An upcoming revolution on the radar?

In the form of a very short video (barely 40 seconds), Furuno shows us a radar screen whose echoes change colour according to the distance from the boat.

What's the point of that? You can think of it as changing the colour of the target with the risk of collision. But that's just an interpretation on our part, because for the moment, apart from these 40 seconds of video, Furuno doesn't want to say any more...

Officially launched at the Miami show (mid-February 2016), we will have to wait for this moment to discover in detail the NXT (that will be its name) which should arrive in our stores only at the end of June 2016

Revolution? If this system makes it possible to better interpret a radar image, we are already convinced of its usefulness.
