Avikus, HD Hyundai’s specialized Autonomous Navigation Technology subsidiary, has announced that its innovative smart navigation and docking has been named one of the 2025 Boating Industry Top Products by the editors of the publication.
 
Organized and judged by the editorial team at Boating Industry Magazine, the 12 annual Top Products awards recognized 50 of the marine industry’s newest and most innovative products and services launched in the last year. To be eligible for consideration, products or services must have been introduced or significantly updated since January 2024. The Boating Industry editors said the winning products were chosen based on many factors such as their impact on the industry, innovation and how they advanced their category.
 
“NEUBOAT continues to garner accolades locally and around the world,” said Dohyeong Lim, CEO of Avikus. “Building on the recent selection by the NMMA at the 2025 Discover Boating Miami International Boat Show Innovation Award, this award further cements NEUBOAT as an important innovation that significantly enhances the boating experience. We are grateful to the editorial team at Boating Industry for their attention and are honored to have been selected.”
 
Avikus NEUBOAT is an autonomous navigation solution for leisure boats, designed for both novice and experienced boaters. According to the U.S. Coast Guard, 81% of fatal boating accidents are attributed to operator error. To address this, NEUBOAT goes beyond a standard chartplotter by using sensor fusion technology to display real-time obstacle data and suggest collision avoidance routes. Its advanced features aim to enhance safety and ease for all users. Additionally, six onboard cameras provide users with a surround view, enabling safer and easier docking.
