Case Study: Brunswick achieves safer, smoother autonomous boating with Apex.AI's safety-certified Apex.OS

Apex.AI Announces Partnership with Brunswick Corporation to Strengthen Autonomous Technology Capabilities

Brunswick, the global leader in recreational marine technology, needed to strengthen its autonomous technology capabilities and integrate safety‑certified software across its ACES (Autonomy, Connectivity, Electrification, Shared Access) strategy to deliver seamless autonomy and a frictionless boating experience. To meet that challenge, Brunswick selected Apex.AI’s Apex.OS bundle—including Apex.Grace and Apex.Ida—to support autonomy features and integrate with current and future sensor suites on its boats.

Apex.AI implemented its safety‑certified framework and middleware (Apex.OS/Apex.Grace/Apex.Ida) to provide reliable, real‑time performance and high‑performance data transport for Brunswick’s autonomous systems, simplifying integration of docking autonomy and other functions. The solution boosts system reliability and customer experience, helps maintain Brunswick’s brand standards, and supports the company’s plan to commercialize autonomous solutions in 2025.
