Drowning Detection

Drowning detection systems that determine risk, don't estimate. A patented deterministic drowning detection system for public pools, municipalities, hotels, and regulated facilities that supports drown prevention objectives, water safety protocols, and faster operator intervention.

A governance platform for facility operators, municipalities, insurers, and consultants who require traceable drowning detection and decision support.

A patented drowning detection system for governed responses

The Aqutron drowning detection system is based on a proprietary industrial patent that introduces a new category of drowning detection systems (DDS): it does not attempt to "see underwater", but determines the physical discrepancy between what is visible above the surface and what should emerge.

When a person is present but ceases to generate three-dimensional returns in the airspace, the drowning detection models identify an objective drowning risk condition, independent of reflections, turbidity, or foam.

The result is a drowning detection system designed for water safety, public pool safety, and traceable operator responses in complex environments.

It is not an alarm that interprets. It is a system that determines, documents, and hands the decision to trained staff.

Drowning detection system installation in public pools without invasive interventions

The Aqutron drowning detection system is designed to be installed in any type of pool, regardless of location, size, or shape, including complex and irregular geometries.

The use of aerial cameras enables installation completely external to the water, with no immersed sensors or invasive work on existing structures.

This makes Aqutron suitable for both new facilities and operational pools, enabling increased safety levels without modifying infrastructure.

Drowning detection systems with privacy safeguards for regulated facilities

Aqutron is designed to minimize the processing of sensitive data.

The system does not need to observe the body underwater or acquire identifying details: risk detection occurs through physical and spatial coherences, not through analysis of individuals.

Processing occurs locally, directly on the facility, without cloud dependency and without transmitting identifiable video streams externally.

Safety is not achieved by observing more, but by measuring better.

A drowning detection system that understands context

Aqutron does not analyze isolated events: it understands the context in which they occur.

Within the pool, it interprets what happens in relation to space, time, and real dynamics. Outside, it integrates the operational environment in which the pool is situated.

This capability makes the system intrinsically scalable and enables submersion detection refinements and alignment with pool safety principles, including ISO 20380 concepts, without disrupting the base architecture.

Aqutron is not born to solve a single problem. It is designed to evolve, maintaining coherence, reliability, and control.

From drowning detection to intervention: a governed risk chain

Aqutron covers the entire risk chain, from the first anomalous event through to human intervention.

The event is detected as an objective risk condition, validated over time to avoid false alarms. When the threshold is exceeded, the system generates a contextualized alarm, indicating where to intervene and why.

The lifeguard does not receive a generic signal, but operational information: location, priority, and context. This reduces interpretation time and enables action more quickly and with greater awareness.

Aqutron does not interrupt the decision chain. It makes it shorter, clearer, and more reliable.
