Despite years of knowledge and experience, crews are essentially fishing blindly.
Most fishing crews have no way of directly seeing their nets underwater. Despite years of knowledge and experience, they are essentially fishing blindly. As a result, fishing crews end up damaging their nets and accidentally catching the wrong species.
SafetyNet Technologies create precision fishing technology to help crews catch the right fish, more sustainably. CatchCam is a robust underwater camera that allows the fishing crews to see their gear in action, taking the guesswork out of fishing.
Working closely with the product team, we designed and trialled a dual channel wireless charger for the CatchCam devices.
The charger design needed to be robust and reliable to meet the physical and environmental demands of life at sea.
Taking inspiration from the spring-loaded bayonet fitting, the locking feature ensures a reassuring and intuitive connection for crews during use, whatever the sea conditions.
Colour and physical cues guide users to successfully align the devices for charging.
