B&G launches wave technology processor

B&G has launched its new WTP3 Wave Technology Processor, providing competitive sailors with accuracy and performance.

The WTP3 is B&G’s next generation Grand Prix level processor, which supersedes the B&G WTP2. The new processor incorporates a number of advanced technological developments that provide improved data accuracy and enhanced overall performance that inshore and offshore Grand Prix competitors demand.

The system’s new compact Central Processing Unit (CPU) collects, calculates, logs and displays data at speeds far in excess of standard instrument systems. Pioneering Wave Technology Motion Correction, which measures the pitch, roll and yaw of the boat, gives greater accuracy and stability of core sailing data while allowing the rapid update of associated data.

WTP3 integrates a full data-logging solution enabling post-analysis of race or testing data. Up to 8GB of data is stored internally in solid state storage, accessible via the unit’s onboard Ethernet connection or via simple USB memory stick offload.

The WTP3 can accept a variety of data including multiple GPS, heading and speed inputs, along with sensors to allow measurement and display of almost any variable in the yacht.
