Fully
mastering
the parameters that govern thrust produced by today’s
composite sails is
challenging, as they are difficult to observe without enough distance. Sail
geometry analysis is an
ideal example where Labsail™ technology allows flexible
“electronic vision
ribands” to give a real-time 3D display of the
sail’s flying shape. The
patented systems
include no external device, and, without any connector, it is easy to
install.
It does not interfere with sail handling and trimming, and can be used
on more
than one sail. |
