LUXE SCENE Adonis On The High Seas

A Smart Yacht That is a Luxurious Fusion of Futuristic Innovation and Artificial Intelligen­ce

-

For the first time ever, a yacht displayed at CES this year, and it wasn't just any yacht. Furrion, a global leader of innovative specialty vehicle and marine markets, partnered with Numarine, European prestige boat builders, to construct an entirely new experience on water.

Adonis, a 78-foot customized Numarine yacht, is a masterful blend of artistry, design and advanced technology. A luxury smart yacht, it is a concept that combines luxury with futuristic innovation and artificial intelligen­ce. The third brilliant concept design from Furrion Design. It joins Limitless, a customized fifth wheel that when joined with Hercules, a futuristic semi-truck, create a 4G connected living experience that redefines luxury mobility. Furrion Designs first concept vehicle was Elysium, the motorhome complete with a hot tub and helicopter on top that Furrion introduced at CES2017. All of Furrion's concept fleet are outfitted with the latest in technology, combining smart living solutions with sophistica­ted design for a luxury mobile lifestyle experience.

Its latest concept, Adonis, is a grand yacht of intelligen­t luxury, with a virtual concierge named Angel, an alwayspres­ent assistant regardless of Internet connection. From audio and video to a full chef's kitchen, safety and observatio­n,

Angel seamlessly integrates to control them all. Powered by a network that knows no limits and built with intelligen­ce that responds to your every move, Angel assists in ways we once only dreamed possible; delivering the news and weather, ordering food from the kitchen, controllin­g your morning playlist, and guiding you through a yoga workout is just the tip of the iceberg. Artificial­ly intelligen­t, it uses facial recognitio­n to learn your personal preference­s, customisin­g your experience by suggesting­s things you may like, whether a new activity at your destinatio­n, a new restaurant or perhaps a new outfit as it learns your sizes and recommends outfits from your favorite retailer. Voice controlled, saying “Hi Angel” primes the AI to receive your commands.

On board Adonis are several Smart Mirrors which function like a large tablet or touch screen allowing you to be connected and informed, or even to watch television. Smart Mirror, like Angel, works in the offline mode as well, informatio­n is pulled and stored from the Internet so that functional­ity is not interrupte­d. When a connection is available, the system syncs and updates automatica­lly.

The Furrion Sense TV is an ultra-slim HDTV with a built in sound bar, featuring Vibration Smart technology that ensures a crisp, stable picture whether at port or sea. Angel can control the TV and send the content you select to it. Angel can also control and monitor all cameras aboard Adonis and alert you whenever attention is required.

Adonis also features a drone parked on the top deck for additional surveillan­ce. Angel can deploy the drone to provide security surveillan­ce of the surroundin­gs or to take photos of moments and places at the request of your voice. The Adonis drone will continuall­y add new features and functions as this technology advances.

The cockpit of Adonis features the Furrion monitoring system that displays everything from navigation to equipment monitoring. Angel's AI is able to constantly monitor and alert you to changes that need to be made either in navigation, perhaps due to weather, or alert you if something in engineerin­g needs attention. Everything Angel is monitoring can be viewed and controlled through the Furrion touchpad smart remote.

Avant garde, Adonis is only being unveiled now, yet it has already broken the record for the largest marine move on land.
