By constructing Active Fins™ out of networks of Active Actua- tors™ including Active Motors™ with Active Screws™ the whole functionality, efficiency and performance of fins seen in nature are not only constructable but more fascinating are surpassed by far and reaching further to new horizons.

With all of these features, Active Fins™ enable to optimize the fluiddynamic characteristics, increase the dynamics, energy con- sumption, and safety of maritime vehicles significantly.

Integration with Active Edge
The principal behind the Active Edge™ technology is well known. By actively sucking and blowing water and air across the whole body and fins of a nautical vehicle it is possible to sculpture a virtual body and fin shape with unique performances.
One of the more simple examples are the possibilities to sculpture the shape according to the needs of operations like the camber or the surface of a fin. Another example is to form the boundary layer of a fin at its leading and trailing edges.
