≈ 1.2 million people die of drowning each year around the world, 50% below the age of 629% of drowning deaths involving children occur in
public pools with certified lifeguards present. Drowning Prevention
Foundation In 2004, there were 3,308 unintentional drownings in the
United States, an average of nine people per day.(CDC 2006) U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
Of all preschoolers who drown, 70 percent are in the care of one or both parents at the time of the drowning and 75 percent are missing from sight
for five minutes or less. Orange County, CA, Fire Authority

Poseidon: Helping lifeguards “see what they can’t see”Camera surveillanceAlert communicated via pager and co-ordinates of the victim known
Reasons for failure:Expensive- Operators of a six-lane expect to pay upwards of $150,000 in hardware, software and installation costsRushed to market before it was readyBlockage of underwater cameras

Effective assistive device to alert lifeguards when a person is drowning
Uses underwater acoustic and in air Radio Frequency (RF) communication
Triggers strobe and siren warnings in receivers positioned along the perimeter of ponds and pools (as well as lifeguard pagers) after a predetermined amount of time underwater
Reduce the stress and burden of the lifeguards
Target children and elderlyKeep the installation cost under $2000

Packaging:Proposed:Epoxy coatingEnclosing the epoxy coated PCB in a watch case
Actual:The PCB is held outside waterCables are run to the pressure sensor and to the buzzer underwaterSo, it is still underwater communication since the
buzzer and the sensor are underwater
Reason:Epoxy expands very slowly and gradually on coolingThe micro-controller became obsoleteTwo tries two different methods = FAIL!
