Abstract: Electronic Tags are mounted on swimmers to reduce their risk of drowning by identifying when their heads are underwater for periods of time which may indicate a dangerous submersion situation, and for triggering corresponding alerts and alarms. In this method, each monitored person is equipped with a lightweight electronic Tag worn on the body that communicates with monitors that issue the alerts and alarms, including audible and visible distress signals. The monitors, in turn, communicate the alarms to receivers used by supervisory personnel, such as lifeguards or parents. The invention may be used in aquatic environments, such as public recreation facilities, pools, waterfronts, and water parks, as well as in more private settings, such as homes, apartment buildings or hotels.

Abstract translation: 电子标签安装在游泳者身上，以便通过识别头部在水下的时间来确定潜在的淹没情况，并触发相应的警报和警报，以降低溺水的风险。 在这种方法中，每个受监视的人员都装备有一个轻量级的电子标签，穿戴在身体上，与发出警报和警报的监视器通信，包括听觉和可见的遇险信号。 监视器又将警报传达给监护人员（如救生员或父母）使用的接收器。 本发明可用于诸如公共娱乐设施，游泳池，滨水区和水上公园之类的水生环境中，以及诸如家庭，公寓楼或酒店等私人场所。
