Raymarine has announced that its Cyclone open-array radar series won a Good Design Award.
The Good Design Awards, organized by the Chicago Athenaeum Museum of Architecture and Design and Metropolitan Arts Press, have honored worldwide innovation in manufacturing and design since 1950.
The Good Design Award for Raymarine’s Cyclone radars was in the research and technology category.
Previously, the company’s Cyclone radars were recognized by the Dame Design Award jury in the “Marine Electronics and Marine-related Software” category at last year’s Metstrade show in Amsterdam.
“We are delighted to have won this Good Design Award. The Cyclone was designed to break the conventions of the product category and to demonstrate its significantly enhanced next-generation technology,” Grégoire Outters, vice president and general manager of Raymarine, said in a statement. “We challenged ourselves to create a radar that combines both beauty and high performance, and we met this challenge with a groundbreaking design, exceptional efficiency and unmatched radar imagery.”
Made to give boaters confidence to navigate harsh conditions, gain advantages while fishing and safely navigate congested waterways, the radars are available in 3-, 4- and 6-foot arrays, with two high-power output options in each size.
Cyclone models integrate with Raymarine Axiom, Axiom+, Axiom Pro and Axiom XL chart-plotter multifunction displays.
