One electronic monitoring system, three working parts
Shellcatch is a complete REM (Remote Electronic Monitoring) solution. Each part can be deployed on its own or as one integrated, end-to-end service.
Vessel Camera & Uploader
Ocean-grade camera and uploader in one rugged, all-in-one unit. Continuous HD recording with an integrated GPS sensor, on-board processing and 24-hour battery autonomy.
Shellcatch Control Center
A compact on-board computer that connects cameras, sensors and VMS units, applies smart recording rules, and uploads data to shore over Starlink, 4/5G or any WiFi.
