Poseidon system can help stop drowning

default — by TDavid @ 4:39 pm PST

I’m not sure about the name, but this life-saving system sounds pretty cool:

The latest close call occurred Jan. 26 at the municipal pool in Sceaux, a Paris suburb, according to Vision IQ. The company said an athletic young man suddenly felt faint during his regular swim session, and sunk to the bottom of the deep end of the pool. Ten seconds later, the Poseidon system detected him and sounded the alarm to the lifeguard on duty, who pulled the victim out of the water, Vision IQ said. The victim was resuscitated and taken to a hospital, where he fully recovered, according to the company.

The name doesn’t make me think of the god of the sea but the movie, Poseidon Adventure, where the boat was turned upside down and most of the passengers drowned.
