Needs of Lifeguards and drowning victim
The worldwide rescue standard applies 10/20 theory (Discover in 10 seconds, rescue in 20 seconds). In real world, only 16% of drowning victim can be discovered in 10 seconds by lifeguards. On average, drowning victim are discovered in 1 minute and 9 seconds.The state-of-the-art Poseidon’s computer vision and aquatic image processing complements lifeguards' vigilance and alerts them audibly and visually when a victim is in distress.
Reasons of Drowning Fatality
1. drowning victim lost consciousness followed by suffocation, nervous twitch, heart attack, severe cramp and finally sinking.
2. Most of the drowning cases result in excessive water inflow to the trachea and lungs that interferes breathing. The drowning victim would then sink to the pool bottom. Some cases involve cramp in the throat that air and water cannot enter the lungs which finally leads to suffocation to death.
3. The above two situations both disrupts the functioning of the lungs so breathing halts and then cerebral anoxia and finally leads to death.
The Advanced Drowning Detection System
Poseidon is the most sophisticated drowning detections in record. Installed in 330 pools worldwide and widely recognized with its power and effectiveness. Poseidon technology is state-of-the-art drowning detection system developed for six years by 65 world-class engineers and €20 million EUR.
New Generation of Pool Safety Standard
1 - Overhead Cameras
Poseidon uses cameras engineered for the challenging environment of the swimming pool. Mounted under the water in the walls of the pool for deep water, or overhead to monitor shallow areas. Poseidon’s cameras provide a complete and overlapping view of the pool.
2 - Central Processor
At the heart of Poseidon, the central processing unit manages and analyses the images from all of the cameras, tracking swimmers in the pool in real-time. When the system detects a swimmer in distress, it raises the alarm through the workstation and pagers.
3 - Supervision Workstation
4 - Underwater Cameras
The workstation provides a way to control and visualize the operation of the system. A simple user interface allows operators to view images from the cameras and locates the drowner.
5 - Drowner
Poseidon warns the lifeguards as soon as it detects a possible drowning.

6 - LED Display Panel
The LED display panel displays the location of the swimmer in trouble in real-time and the elapsed time starting from its detection. It is also equipped with an audible alarm alerting on-duty lifeguards. The panel is visible from 1,000 feet and is constructed of materials that resist corrosion and waterproof.
