Patent attributes
A control system for boats includes a direction control system of a propulsion unit having a directional control member, and an acceleration/deceleration control system of the propulsion unit having an acceleration/deceleration control member. The directional control member activates a directional unit that generates directional control signals, which set an orientation of the propulsion unit, and the acceleration/deceleration control member activates an acceleration/deceleration unit that generates acceleration/deceleration control signals, which set at least a number of revolutions of the propulsion unit. The control system further includes a display unit provided with a screen, and a camera having a control system that provides images of areas or zones that cannot be observed by an operator of the control system while steering the boat, so as to enable driving the acceleration/deceleration unit and/or the directional unit according to a content of those images.
