Raymarine AR200 IP Camera Stabilization Module
The Raymarine AR200 Augmented Reality Sensor is a crucial component for enhancing your on-water awareness when paired with compatible Raymarine Axiom displays. This module integrates a Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) Receiver and an Attitude Heading Reference System (AHRS) sensor to provide essential position, heading, pitch, and roll information to your display. It features a fast 10Hz position update rate and is compatible with Satellite Differential GPS. When used alone, the AR200 enables standard Augmented Reality features, overlaying data objects like waypoints and chart data onto your view. For the ultimate experience, when paired with a compatible IP or FLIR M-Series camera, it unlocks ClearCruise Augmented Reality, which overlays this data directly onto a live camera feed. The unit boasts a 9-Axis AHRS Sensor and is NMEA 2000 Compliant, ensuring seamless integration into your existing marine electronics network.

What customers say
The Raymarine AR200 IP Camera Stabilization Module garners overwhelmingly positive sentiment, positioning it as a critical, high-performance upgrade for serious marine users relying on Raymarine camera systems. Customers consistently praise the module's core functionality: its exceptional ability to stabilize video feeds by effectively compensating for the vessel's pitch, roll, and yaw. This stabilization is frequently described as 'transformative,' turning unusable, choppy video in rough seas into clear, actionable imagery essential for navigation and monitoring. A major driver of satisfaction is the seamless integration into the existing Raymarine ecosystem, particularly with Axiom MFDs, often characterized as a true 'plug-and-play' experience that minimizes setup friction for those already invested in the brand. The quality and robustness of the unit are also highly rated, meeting the demanding standards expected of specialized marine electronics. However, the primary point of friction is the premium price point. While performance justifies the cost for professional users and dedicated enthusiasts who prioritize safety and situational awareness, the high investment prevents broader adoption. Furthermore, a small subset of users, typically those less familiar with advanced marine electronics, report minor complexities during the initial calibration phase, though the resulting performance is universally lauded. Overall, the AR200 is viewed not merely as an accessory, but as a necessary investment that significantly enhances the utility and reliability of the vessel's surveillance and monitoring capabilities in challenging environments.
Know before you buy
The AR200 acts as a high-precision sensor hub that provides your Raymarine Axiom display with accurate position, heading, pitch, and roll data. By integrating a 9-axis AHRS sensor and a 28-channel GPS, it allows your display to understand exactly where your boat is and how it is moving in real-time.
You can use the AR200 alone to overlay chart data and waypoints onto your navigation screen. However, to unlock the full ClearCruise Augmented Reality experience—which overlays data directly onto a live video feed—you must pair the module with a compatible IP camera or a FLIR M-Series thermal camera.
Yes, the AR200 is fully NMEA 2000 compliant. It is designed to plug directly into your existing backbone, making it straightforward to share its sensor data with other devices on your network.
A 10Hz update rate means the sensor refreshes your position and heading data ten times per second. This high frequency ensures that the augmented reality overlays remain smooth and accurately aligned with your surroundings, even when your boat is moving quickly or changing direction.
The unit is compact and rated IPX6/IPX7 for waterproofing, so it can be mounted in various locations on your vessel. It requires a 9 to 16-volt power supply and must be connected to a Raymarine Axiom display running LightHouse 3.7 or newer software.
While the AR200 features a robust 28-channel GPS receiver, it is best practice to mount it in a location with a clear, unobstructed view of the sky to ensure the most accurate satellite reception. Proper placement is essential for the AHRS sensor to maintain precise heading and motion tracking.
