Project overview

Off The Deck - SeaDriveCX

Hooper Quinn designed, developed, tested and manufactured SeaDriveCX, a portable golf simulator for superyachts. In nine months, the team brought together mechanical systems, high-speed cameras, computing and AI-backed software in a complete product.

The challenge.

SeaDriveCX set out to bring portable golf simulation to the deck of a superyacht. The product needed to combine a bespoke deployment mechanism, high-speed cameras, computing and an interactive touchscreen in one complete unit.

For Hooper Quinn, the task was to turn that idea into a manufactured product, bringing the mechanical systems and software together with a motorsport-inspired design.

‍

Our approach.

Hooper Quinn's product development team developed SeaDriveCX from the ground up, taking responsibility for design, development, testing and manufacture over a nine-month programme.

The work brought together the bespoke deployment mechanism, a water-cooled PC, high-speed cameras and an interactive touchscreen. Mechanical systems and AI-backed software formed part of the same product, alongside its motorsport-inspired exterior.

‍

What we delivered.

A complete portable golf simulator for the superyacht market, designed, developed, tested and manufactured by Hooper Quinn. SeaDriveCX combines:

  • A bespoke deployment mechanism.
  • High-speed cameras and a water-cooled PC.
  • An interactive touchscreen display.
  • Integrated mechanical systems and AI-backed software.
  • A motorsport-inspired exterior design.

‍

The outcome.

SeaDriveCX progressed from an idea to a fully productionised unit in nine months. The project brought product design, mechanical engineering, software, testing and manufacture together in a single delivered product for on-deck entertainment.

"We reached out to Hooper Quinn with a sketch of our idea and within 9 months they delivered a prototype that has simply blown our customers away."
