Growth in the tourism sector is expected to propel the growth of the recreational boat market. Tourism is a social, cultural and economic phenomenon that involves individuals traveling to countries or places beyond their typical environment for personal or business/professional reasons. The rapid growth of tourism in the last decade is due to the increase in disposable income, access to various places, the desire to explore, etc.

The pleasure boat helps the tourism industry by transporting passengers to the desired travel destination and providing a luxurious experience for tourists. For example, according to a report published by the United Nations World Trade Organization (UNWTO) in 2022, global tourism increased from 400 million in 2020 to 415 million in 2021, an increase of 4% in 2021 compared to the previous year.

It is the first fully autonomous, AI-driven robotaxi capable of carrying passengers. The system uses artificial intelligence, neural networks and thermal imaging technologies to detect even the most minor obstacles and safety issues, issuing important alerts and helping to navigate safely around them.
