Star Drive AI Refit for Electric Sail Propulsion Six Autonomous Modes – Driven by AI
1. Intelligent Hybrid Propulsion: Your Sailing AI Captain The real innovation happens beneath the waves and beyond the helm. STAR-Drive AI becomes your vessel's intelligent propulsion captain, seamlessly managing the complex interplay between diesel engine, electric motors, and energy storage. Whether motor-sailing in light winds or harvesting energy under sail, AI continuously optimizes for lowest fuel consumption.

2. Advanced Hydrogeneration: Turn Your Propellers into Generators The system's ability to intelligently harvest energy while sailing is a powerful advantage. Using advanced AI algorithms trained on hydrodynamic models, STAR- Drive AI automatically optimizes hydrogeneration based on: •Real-time sailing conditions: Wind speed, boat speed, and sea state •Dynamic load balancing: Smooth boat speed vs. maximum energy harvest •Predictive charging: Anticipating energy needs for upcoming legs •Seamless transitions: Millisecond switching between propulsion and generation This revolutionary feature transforms your sailing boat into a self-charging hybrid, dramatically reducing engine runtime and fuel consumption. 3 . Revolutionary AI Passage Planning: Set Destination, AI Does the Rest The breakthrough Advanced Hybrid Mode integrates with your chartplotter: •Enter destination on chartplotter •Set arrival time in Safiery mobile app •AI calculates optimal strategy balancing fuel, battery, and sailing conditions •Continuous optimization adjusts for changing weather and conditions •Arrival guarantee ensures you reach destination on time with fuel reserves
