Furuno MFD8 Multifunction Display Explained:
The world of onboard navigation systems has evolved. Furuno’s dedication to
deliver the best marine electronics has led to the most innovative, powerful
solution for onboard navigation ever.
Furuno’s NavNet 3D is a groundbreaking new
navigation system that breathes new life into the user interface. Once you
start using NavNet 3D, you will be amazed at how a system so powerful can
be so simple to use. NavNet 3D comes fully loaded with groundbreaking new
features that will expand your navigational horizons.
Furuno MFD8 Navnet 3D uses a cutting-edge
technology we’ve named “Time Zero.” Time Zero facilitates instant chart redraw,
allowing for zooming in and out, changing chart display modes and other chart
handling functions seamlessly and with no lag at all. Time Zero brings you
a truly seamless navigation environment you have to experience to believe.
True 3D environment for a more instinctive
chart presentation.
Furuno MFD8 Navnet 3D incorporates a whole new dimension into chart presentation
with Full Time 3D chart rendering. You can choose a 2D top-down view of the
navigation chart for a look and feel that duplicates a traditional chart plotting
presentation. Or, you can choose to pan and zoom the chart to any angle at
any range scale you choose instantly. There is no ‘3D mode’ to change into
and no waiting at all, because Furuno MFD8 Navnet 3D operates in this 3D environment
full time. This variety of chart presentations helps to improve your situational
awareness by giving you unprecedented control over your charting environment.
Furuno MFD8 Navnet 3D’s powerful new graphic
engine brings new chart presentation options to the conventional 2D method
of chart plotting. Satellite Photo Fusion is a powerful new tool, a hybrid
blend of detailed satellite imagery and critical chart data. These new presentation
options allow you to visually grasp your exact position in a way that was
never before possible.
Furuno MFD8 Navnet 3D incorporates native
3D chart architecture that allows for a full-time 3-dimensional presentation,
as opposed to 2D charts that require special effects to appear 3D. There are
no special ‘modes; that limit your ability to navigate the way you want. With
Furuno MFD8 Navnet 3D’s true 3D environment, you can see all of the information
you want with no limitations on what information you wish to view. Plan your
routes and enter waypoints directly on your raster or vector native 3D charts.
Radar overlay, Sirius Network Weather Receiver, AIS, plus all of your chart
symbols and depth soundings; any and all of this information can be displayed
at will. This is the beauty of navigating in true 3D. You have full control
over the presentation all of the time.
Satellite Photo Fusion.
Satellite photography can be fused with raster or vector chart information.
Land areas (zero depth) are completely opaque, so that these areas are displayed
as satellite photos on the chart. As the depth increases, the satellite photography
becomes more transparent so that you will know where the shallows end and
the deeper water starts.
High resolution satellite photography aids
in seabed classification so that you will be able to easily identify areas
of sand, rock, coral or other obstructions.
Time Zero Technology Makes Chart Redraw
A Thing Of The Past
High-speed processing and a powerful graphic engine deliver Time Zero technology
– instant, seamless chart handling with no lag or loading time. Furuno MFD8
Navnet 3D Time Zero technology redefines the meaning of stress-free operation.
Zoom seamlessly and continuously to whatever chart scale you desire. Instead
of limiting you to a small handful of chart scales to choose from, Time Zero
architecture allows you to zoom in or out to the exact magnification level
you like without steps or limitations.
You can freely pan and scroll the chart by
simply pressing the scroll pad. This gives you freedom to explore the chart
data, allowing you to focus on a specific area ahead of or around your vessel
without losing track of your position on the chart. Explore the chart data
at your leisure, and then instantly return to your own ship at the touch of
a single dedicated button.
Furuno MFD8 Navnet 3D Digital Solution

automatic real-time digital signal processing. Antenna rotation speed (24/36/48
rpm) is automatically shifted appropriate to the pulse length. Commercial-grade
radar performance is now available in the ultimate MFD navigation suite. One
of the amazing features of Furuno UHD Digital Radar is ‘Real Time’ dual range
radar display, which scans and displays two different radar ranges with no
lag at all. This greatly enhances your situational awareness.
You probably know about digital fish finders,
but are not quite sure what the term really means. FURUNO Digital Filter fish
finders feature advanced filtering capabilities and digital auto tuning which
eliminate noise and deliver the ability to spot individual fish with clarity,
accuracy and detail.
Furuno MFD8 Navnet 3D ROTOKEY Puts a whole
new spin in “User Friendly.”
Furuno MFD8 Navnet 3D challenges the conventional menu operating system with
a whole new concept, the ROTOKEY on-screen revolving menu key. One turn of
the Rotokey gives you instant access to full control of Furuno MFD8 Navnet
3D. The Rotokey is designed as a part of NavNet 3D’s scaleable operating system;
a short press of the Rotokey gives you access to a user-selected set of the
basic functions that you will use the most, while a longer press of the key
displays all of the functions available. Never leave your navigation screen
to enter a menu again!
NavNet 3D provides the easiest user interface
on the market with a combination of both Rotokey and familiar point-and-click
cursor pad controls. The power of the point-and-click interface allows for
incredibly simple operation – click anywhere on the screen for context-sensitive
options for that area. Click on any data box to access detailed information
for that function. You can also connect a generic USB mouse to further simplify
operation.
One press of the Disp button allows you to
easily select the presentation you desire. Five intelligently designed hot-pages
are available to you right out of the box, with the ability to save up to
ten custom layouts.
The scrolling pad allows independent scrolling
and panning capabilities from a dedicated omni-pad. Pan the chart and shift
the radar without any screen redraw or lag. You can also control IP cameras
without accessing complicated menus or changing your current presentation.
One long press of the 3D key will toggle
the chart from 3D to a familiar 2D, top-down perspective. While the chart
remains in its native 3D environment, only the perspective shifts – there
is no special mode required to shift back to 3D perspective. |
