Adding a New Dimension to 3D

Onboard vessel navigation has undergone something of

a revolution in recent years.

Never before has so much information been available to

you to improve and enhance your boating experience.

FURUNO’s dedication to deliver the most intuitive,

integrated onboard navigation solutions has lead to the

launch of NavNet 3D, a powerful new tool designed to

integrate all navigation functions on a modern leisure

vessel in one easy to use control unit.

Let NavNet 3D take you easily to routes less travelled.

01-02

FURUNO’s NavNet 3D allows complex tasks

to be performed through a simple user interface.

Cleverly integrating all the instrumentation on your vessel to

give you a stress-free boating experience. Once you start using

NavNet 3D you will be amazed to see how completely different

it is from existing onboard navigation systems.

NavNet3D expands your horizons.

TimeZeroTM Technology makes chart redraw a thing of the past.

NavNet 3D utilizes cutting-edge technology, called “TimeZeroTM”. “TimeZeroTM” facilitates instant chart redraw,

allowing you to zoom in and out, change display mode and manage points and routing seamlessly. There is no

time lag for redraw, everything takes place in real time. For the ultimate in flexibility and the fastest NavNet 3D

redraw, look to the Black Box (MFDBB), which features a super-charged graphics processor.

Instinctive, clear chart presentation.

NavNet 3D adds a whole new dimension to chart presentation. You can choose a 2D aerial view of the navigation

chart or a 3D navigation chart with adjustable viewing points. Switch on Satellite PhotoFusionTM, and photographic

images are incorporated into chart presentation. Driven by a simple user interface, all this information helps to

improve your situational awareness by giving you unprecedented control over your charting environment.

NavNet 3D RotoKeyTM puts a whole new spin on “User Friendly”.

NavNet 3D challenges a conventional menu operation scheme with the new concept the

“RotoKeyTM”, on-screen revolving menu keys. By turning a rotary knob on the control

panel, RotoKeyTM will be activated to give you full access to NavNet 3D controls.

03-04

NavNet 3D Features

NavNet 3D is built around a powerful graphic engine, managed by TimeZeroTM technology.

This system adds new presentation options on top of conventional 2D chart presentation:

3D chart and Satellite PhotoFusionTM, a new hybrid blend of detailed satellite imagery

containing critical chart data. In these modes it becomes possible to visually grasp the exact

position of your craft in a wider perspective.

Navigate in True 3D

NavNet 3D incorporates “native 3D chart architecture” that

allows for a full time 3-dimensional presentation, as opposed to

2D charts that require special effects to appear 3-dimensional.

With NavNet 3D’s true 3D environment, you can see all of the

information you want with no limitations on what information

you wish to view. Plan your routes and enter points directly

on your raster or vector native 3D charts. Overlay a variety

of data with a touch of the RotoKeyTM, such as Radar overlay,

AIS and ARPA targets plus all of your chart symbols and depth

soundings; any and all of the information can be displayed at

will. This is the beauty of navigating in NavNet 3D, you have

full control over the presentation at all times.

Satellite PhotoFusion

Our high-resolution satellite photography can now be fused

with raster or vector chart information. Land areas (zero depth)

are completely opaque, so that these areas are displayed with

high-resolution satellite photos on the chart. As the depth

increases, the satellite photography becomes more transparent

so that you will know where the shallows end and the deeper

water begins. High-resolution satellite photography aids in

seabed classication so that you will be able to easily identify

areas of sand, rock, coral, and other obstructions.

3D Key

Even though the charts are always operating in their

native 3D environment, one long press of the 3D

key will toggle the chart from 3D to a familiar 2D,

top-down perspective and vice versa.

Satellite & Vecter/PhotoFusion

(Low-resolution)

The high-resolution photography for Satellite PhotoFusionTM is not available in certain areas.

Please consult with the distributor in your area for availability.

Bathymetric data is needed to display Satellite PhotoFusionTM in 3D. Without the bathymetric data, you can still view the perspective 3D. (without contour elevation)

Satellite & 3D perspective view (Without bathymetric data)

Bathymetric data is currently under development in some areas. Please consult with the distributor in your area for availability.

The Only Acceptable Wait Time is Zero:

TimeZeroTM Technology Changes Your Perspective on Chart Redraw

Its high-speed processor and powerful graphic engine deliver TimeZeroTM technology that

facilitates seamless chart handling, zooming and panning without the screen disappearing.

Blink and you will miss it! TimeZeroTM will dramatically speed up your onboard decision-making

Chart scaling without limitation

This completely new system design allows you to zoom seamlessly and continuously to whatever chart scale

you desire. Instead of limiting you to a small handful of chart scales to choose from like traditional chart

plotters, TimeZeroTM architecture allows you to zoom in or out to the exact magnification level you like

without steps or limitations.

by greatly simplifying chart handling actions. NavNet 3D TimeZeroTM technology redefines the

meaning of stress-free operation. For the ultimate performance in chart redraw, step up to the

NavNet 3D Black Box.

Easy chart panning gives you freedom to explore

You can pan the chart freely by simply pressing the scrolling pad. This gives you freedom to

explore the chart, allowing you to focus on a specic area ahead of or around your craft with

greater intensity without losing track of your position on the chart. Explore the chart data at your

leisure, and then instantly return to own ship at the touch of a single dedicated button. Displaying

True and Relative Motion is now more intuitive than ever before. TimeZeroTM technology provides

a useful utility for focusing on a specic direction such as the area ahead of your craft.

Scalable operating system accommodates everyone from new boaters through to experienced navigators

NavNet 3D is designed to give you a user-friendly operating environment all the time through

its scalable operating system. NavNet 3D’s scalable operating system allows you to select the

functions you wish to control from an extensive list of options.

Point & Shoot Interface

NavNet 3D allows for a more straightforward user interface with a

combination of both RotoKeyTM and a familiar point-and-shoot cursor

pad control. The power of point-and-shoot interface allows for incredibly

simple operation - click anywhere on the screen for context-sensitive

options for that area. Click on any data box to access detailed

information for that function. A variety of features can be accessed

through a familiar left or right click interface. You can also connect a

generic USB mouse to further simplify operation.

RotoKey

This is NavNet 3D’s revolutionary new control that merges the power and versatility

of soft keys with an easy-to-use rotary knob! One turn of the RotoKeyTM gives you

instant access to full control of NavNet 3D. The RotoKeyTM is designed as a part of

NavNet 3D’s scalable operating system; a short press of the RotoKeyTM gives you

access to a user-selected set of the functions that you select upon installation from

Basic, Standard, Full or Custom, while a longer press of the key displays all of the

functions available. Never leave your navigation screen to enter a menu again!

DISP Key

One press of the DISP button allows you to easily select the presentation

you desire. Five intelligently designed hot-pages are available to you right

out of the box, with the ability to save up to ten custom hot-pages.

Customize any hot-page with a simple long press of the RotoKeyTM, which

launches the hot-page wizard.

Range Key

Simple press of the Range key allows

you to adjust to the range scale of your

choice with smooth zooming-in/out

actions—thanks to TimeZeroTM

technology.

Scrolling Pad

The scrolling pad allows independent

scrolling and panning capabilities from

a dedicated omni-pad. Pan the chart or

shift the radar quickly and seamlessly.

You can also control Axis IP cameras

without accessing complicated menus

or changing your current presentation.

3D Key

One long press of the 3D key will toggle the

chart from 3D to a familiar 2D, top-down

perspective. While the chart remains in its

native 3D environment, only the perspective

shifts. Press the key again and you toggle

back to 3D. There is no special mode required

to shift back to 3D perspective.
