Pod-way emergency stops at the click on a button. To relieve the crew of performing emergency stops manually, we have automated the procedure so the crew can keep their attention on the situation ahead.

• Performs crash stops better than what is possible manually
• Balances the loads on propulsion system
• Retains control over steering
• Lowers risk to the propulsion system

• Stops vessel more efficiently than manual control, every time
• Easily adjust heading with the mini-wheel
• Lowers risk of damage to pods and propulsion
• Starts at the push of a button

• Allows the operator to focus on the situation instead of the procedure
• Alleviates pressure on crew in an emergency situation

• Shorter stopping time and distance
• Enables steering during the maneuver
• Increases safety for ship, crew and passengers
