Sailing and Regatta : Apps, SW & Tracking

The Liveline graphics are a technology breakthrough for this Americas Cup, providing real time graphics embedded in the live broadcast from a helicopter following the race.  The race yachts carry a sophisticated tracking and telemetry system.  The military grade GPS tracks the boats accurately to 2 cm, enabling the Liveline computer graphics to be created on shore.

The Yellowbrick is a well-proven, self-contained and fully-automatic satellite tracking device. It will accurately report the position of a yacht anywhere on the world’s oceans. It is lightweight, waterproof and built to withstand extreme weather.

The annual J.P. Morgan Asset Management Round the Island Race, organised by the Island Sailing Club, is a one-day yacht race around the Isle of Wight, an island situated off the south coast of England.

Liveline, the technology that makes competitive sailing accessible to home viewers worldwide, has been awarded an Emmy for extraordinary technical innovation
