Time is of the essence when somebody is at risk of drowning, leaving a great need for systems like the Rescue Board on beaches worldwide. Designed by Stillform, this concept lifeguard tool comprises a supportive body board with motors built in, coupled with a dock on land where the vehicle can be recharged.
The Rescue Board maintains a streamlined and ergonomic design, despite the integration of moving parts within it. The solution is sleek and quick even in the roughest areas offshore, helping to get the aid person out and the victim back in without delay. And while the RESQ system is not in use, the board pulls more power from the solar paneled home station. All populated lake, sea and ocean waterfronts can use a system such as this, enhancing safety by self-sustaining means.
