Publication number: 20210227815Abstract: A sensor assembly for a castable lure is provided including a pressure sensor configured to measure a water pressure applied to the castable lure when deployed in an underwater environment, a processor, and a memory including computer program code. The computer program code configured to, when executed on the processor, cause the processor to receive pressure data from the pressure sensor, correlate the pressure data with time stamp data, cause the pressure data and correlated time stamp data to be stored in the memory, determine a data connection status between a transceiver and a marine electronic device, and in response to determining that a data connection exists, cause the pressure data and the correlated time stamp data to be transmitted to the marine electronic device. The pressure data and correlated pressure data correspond to a depth profile for a cast of the castable lure.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 14, 2021Publication date: July 29, 2021Inventors: Matthew Laster, Lucas Dale Steward, Aaron J. Burton

Patent number: 10290124Abstract: Various implementations described herein are directed to a marine electronics device used to display marine sonar data. The marine electronics device may include a computer system with a processor, memory, and a display. The memory may have a plurality of executable instructions. When the executable instructions are executed by the processor, the processor may receive depth information determined using a sonar device disposed underneath a vessel and configured to acquire sonar data in the direction of travel of the vessel. The processor may then cause the received depth information to be displayed on a navigation chart.Type: GrantFiled: October 9, 2013Date of Patent: May 14, 2019Assignee: NAVICO HOLDING ASInventor: Lucas Dale Steward
