VSPARS is a NZ based company which has developed a range of unique deck-mounted sail and rig vision systems for automatically determining sail shape.

The VSPARS system is simple and robust - it can be operated by the navigator or tactician in real time without distraction. Self-contained camera units are connected by single USB cables to a standard
laptop. Each camera is individually calibrated to remove distortion from the ultra-wide angle lenses. Sail shape information is displayed in real time, allowing trim optimisation using historical
targets. Full 3D coordinates of the sail and rig deflection are saved along with data from the boat's instrumentation system. Analysis onshore is easy, with a powerful database to select the exact
conditions required. IGES surfaces can easily be created for running through CFD codes. Other products include a small boat system suitable for Olympic classes and a stand-alone analysis tool. VSPARS
systems are in use on everything from Star boats to Volvo 70s.
