Sail pressure sensor kit: an integrated system.

SailSensor is not a stand-alone device but a system in which sensors, app and data interpretation work together. Every element is designed to contribute to a clearer, more immediate reading of how the sail behaves.

Every component of the system is designed to turn the sail into readable information while you are sailing.

The aerodynamic pressure sensors on the sail

Each SailSensor measures differential pressure directly on the sail surface via wireless BLE communication. The compact, low-profile shape is designed to minimise its impact on the airflow, ensuring an accurate reading of aerodynamic pressure while sailing.

1. COVER

A compact, low-profile design, shaped to blend in with the sail and minimise its impact on the airflow.

2. ELECTRONICS

The system's components are housed inside: sensors, printed circuit boards and batteries.

3. CAP

Designed to keep water out, withstand the elements and protect the internal parts.

The Android app for sailing telemetry

The SailSensor app for Android collects pressure-sensor data in real time via BLE and turns it into an aerodynamic map of the sail. From visualising the pressures on the mainsail and the jib to trimming and trim data, everything is designed to help the sailor fine-tune the settings with greater precision.

Intuitive visualisation

A digital twin of the sail with a colour gradient makes pressure readings easy to interpret.

Real-time data

The app processes the incoming information instantly and provides graphical and audible feedback.

Session analysis

Data can be stored to review your outings and track progress over time.

Full interaction between sensors, app and data.

The wireless pressure sensors on the sail, the navigation app and the data analysis work together in a continuous flow. Aerodynamic telemetry is captured directly on the sail surface, transmitted via BLE and displayed in real time to optimise trim and trimming.
