Abstract: For users to easily acquire and respond to actual ocean environmental data, an integrated navigation information system base on sensors must be developed to meet the increasing interest in marine leisure activities. Therefore, this study proposes a multi-sensor-based wearable device for marine leisure that can be used by the expanding marine leisure population and provide navigation safety information. The wearable device is developed by combining wearable-based hardware stand-alone and Android-base applications and by utilizing several miniaturized environmental and position sensors. The system can provide environmental information data that are transmitted in real time to users onto a display on the wearable device.
