Blog | The Future is Now: Yachting & Artificial Intelligence

If you’ve ever ruptured a vocal cord screaming at Siri or Alexa, you might have mixed emotions about this news – there’s now such a thing as a “Luxury Smart Yacht”. That yacht’s name is ADONIS, and she just made history as the first boat to ever exhibit at CES, the annual consumer electronics extravaganza in Las Vegas.

Built by the Turkish shipyard Numarine and rendered “smart” by the global technology company Furrion, ADONIS is, indeed, a 78-foot game changer. That’s because she comes equipped with a voice-activated A.I. Assistant named “Angel”. Angel can give anyone on board the latest news, play music, send a meal order to the galley, and even suggest cruising plans for the next day.

Unlike Alexa, this “virtual concierge” has built in facial-recognition technology, so she can also offer health analysis on things like weight and complexion. Pretty cool. Furrion’s technology comes with a host of smart mirrors and touch displays – which is just perfect for anyone looking to give their yacht more of a USS Enterprise vibe.
