USING INDUSTRY INSIGHTS TO CREATE A COMPLETELY NEW BREED OF ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEMS
Erik Calissendorff started as ETO on the largest super yachts in the industry 2002.
With a passion for technology Erik’s mission on board was to give the owners and
the crew the best possible entertainment experience.
After years of searching without finding any suitable solution, Erik
decided to do it himself. With over a decade of industry experience
and a M.Sc. in IT he founded Plejd AB in 2009 and together with a
competent and passionate team of engineers set out to change the
industry.
Without the baggage of legacy systems we could start fresh and
create a new breed of control systems.

MANAGING DIRECTOR
Erik soon realized that existing entertainment control systems needed
much improvement to enable him to give the owners and crew the
best possible experience. Some of the issues identified was:
• Poor and inconsistent user experience
• Always reliant on a programmer for changes, upgrades and
customization creating high running costs and lots of headaches
• Inconsistent and often poor reliability creates irritation among
guests and frustration among crew being reliant on programmers
for saving the day
3. What we do

Entertainment and control system integration
A system is only as good as its individual parts and design. With
our highly skilled team of M.Sc. engineers and decade of industry
experience we have put together a portfolio to match all of your
entertainment and control system needs.
4. A system loved by both guests and crew
The reliability of most systems today is directly linked to the skill of the programmer used.
Not only does this reliance on individual programmers create quality uncertainties but it’s
very hard to test a complex system especially at the end of projects already pressed for time.
This results in problems found later on which overall creates unstable and costly systems.
The Plejd system has a unique intelligence that in real-time calculates
and executes all commands within the system. This means that
almost everything that the programmer before did manually the Plejd
system does automatically. Furthermore almost all adjustments and
administration is handled directly in the user interfaces enabling crew
to easily manage the system themselves. With Plejd anyone becomes
an expert programmer.
Gone is the reliance on individual programmers, quality is consistently
good and with most administration and adjustments handled directly
by the crew running costs are kept to a minimum. Overall guests and
crew can enjoy a stable system.
With Plejd, it simply works.
5. The personal control system
We put a lot of effort in creating an interface that
not only is intuitive to use but also personal to you.
Within a Plejd system everyone has their own user
account and each user can tailor their interface just
the way they like it.
• Looks
Select one of our beautiful themes or create your own
• Drag-n-Drop
Easily arrange the controls as you like them
• Hide
Hide controls you don’t use or show all controls for total control,
You decide
• Create
Create your own presets directly in the interface.
WITH PLEJD IT’́S ALWAYS PERSONAL
6. Location Services
Our unique Location services utilizes the latest iBeacon
and Wi-Fi indoor positioning technology to accurately
locate all control devices e.g. iPads, iPhones etc.
BRING YOUR SURROUNDINGS TO YOU
This technology opens up new and unique features:
• Pick up a control device in any room and instantly start controlling. No
need to manually change room, let the system do that for you.
• Like to finish the movie in the bedroom or keep listening to your favorite
music as you move between areas. Tell the system that you like your
media to follow you and wherever you go your media follows.
7. The Plejd system has proved itself to be head and
shoulders above any other entertainment and control
system available on the market. [...]
The guys at Plejd understand the demands of the industry.
The system on board is stable and reliable, requiring a
fraction of the maintenance of other systems.
