Problems solved by technology

Also, even if a lifeguard does identify that person as potentially drowning, that lifeguard may take longer than necessary to get to that person
As a result, lifeguards may not be able to identify all incidents in all the different locations on the beach as quickly as desired, and may not be able to reach individuals in need of assistance as quickly as desired.

Embodiment Construction

[0034] The illustrative embodiments recognize and take into account one or more different considerations. For example, the illustrative embodiments recognize and take into account that the use of lifeguards with existing equipment and procedures for recreational waters such as beaches is not necessarily the most desirable way to provide assistance to individuals in response to an event that may occur. The illustrative embodiments recognize and take into account that having lifeguards present for longer periods of time and increasing the number of lifeguards may still not provide the desired level of safety in recreational waters.

[0035] For example, the illustrative embodiments recognize and take into account that lifeguards may not always be as quick as desired to identify an event requiring a rescue mission. Also, in some cases, only a small section of the beach can be monitored at a time for the use of lifeguards. Individuals outside the monitored area may not be able to...

Abstract

The invention relates to a water area management system. provided are a method and apparatus for managing a recreational water area. A recreational water area management system (212) comprises a water area manager (216). The water area manager (216) is configured to receive information (220) about a recreational water area from a group of autonomous vehicles (239), analyze the information (220) to identify an event (306), and coordinate the group of autonomous vehicles (239) to perform a mission (326) in the recreational water (204) area based on the event (306).

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates generally to bodies of water, and in particular to managing water bodies. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to a method and apparatus for monitoring and responding to safety-related events in recreational waters. Background technique [0002] Recreational waters such as beaches and the waters surrounding beaches are areas in which lifesaving operations may be conducted for persons engaged in various activities on and around the beach. For example, more than 70,000 people are rescued from imminent danger each year on beaches across the United States. Rescues may occur to individuals who cannot swim in marine waters, who are caught in rapids, and / or encounter other conditions that may occur in the water. [0003] These rescue missions involve beach lifeguards. Lifeguards may be stationed at various lifeguard stands and other stations. In addition, lifeguards may also move to different locations on the ve...
