From simple barges to high-tech ocean-going tankers and gigantic container freighters – ships move millions of tons of goods around the world every year. To ensure that the technical systems on board a ship operate as smoothly as possible, maresystems GmbH, based in Hamburg, supplies ship automation systems that record and evaluate all ongoing processes on board and vizualise them on the on-board computer.

Challenges

Malfunctions of operationally relevant systems on board a ship require quick action – even on the high seas.

• Ships with maresystems equipment are spread all over the world
• If technical support is needed, a journey by the expert is often lengthy and associated with high costs
• Remote maintenance with support for the latest product and market developments

Solution

maresystems offers practical remote support with TeamViewer Assist AR in case of service: Troubleshooting on board can be carried out by technically experienced crew members with the help of AR data goggles or the camera of a smartphone or tablet under remote guidance by qualified engineers on shore.
