Sailing matilda: Goodbye Panama, Hello Galapagos
SailBlogs &bull Feb 10, 2012

While this enables us to understand vessel operational data live, when we combine multiple datasets, this limitation is significant. Have you noticed how it is nearly impossible to catch a fly? The primary reason is that a fly can process 20 frames per millisecond and our world appears to move in slow motion to a fly as compared to how we see it. Imagine if we could process 20… Full Story »
