Combating drowning deaths, the 'SEAL' swim monitor works to keep swimmers safe in any situation. The swim monitor is a waterproofed necklace that senses when the swimmer is in danger. If the sensors are triggered, a base station is alerted and a parent or lifeguard can go rescue the distressed swimmer.
Each device can be configured according the swimmer's proficiency. The setting allows the sensor to adjust its sensitivity. If a person doesn't know how to swim, SEAL will send out an alarm as soon as the necklace touches water. However, if the wearer is a professional swimmer, the necklace becomes much less sensitive.
The sensors use patented technology in order to detect when the swimmer is in danger. Adjusting to each wearer's habits, SEAL only sounds an alarm when there is a credible threat.
What's Driving This Trend
- Anti-drowning Technology
- Developing wearable devices that detect when a swimmer is in danger and alert a base station to prevent drowning.
- Personalized Swim Sensors
- Fine-tuning sensitivity settings of swim monitors to match a swimmer's proficiency in order to maximize safety.
- Patented Detection Technology
- Innovative sensor technology that identifies credible threats when a swimmer is in danger.
Who This Affects Most
- Swim Safety
- Companies specializing in safety equipment for swimming and aquatic activities that can implement wearable anti-drowning technology.
- Wearables
- Producing wearable technology devices that can detect and prevent dangerous situations that will benefit consumers beyond swimming activities.
- Smart Homes
- Integrating swim monitors with a home automation system that alarms base stations in connected homes in the event of a drowning threat.
