When it comes to water rescues, time is all that matters… and nothing’s more equipped for rapid response than a drone. Designed with this mind, the LifeDrone is capable of not only surveillance in and around beaches but it can also deliver a life preserver in the very instant it detects a problem – all without putting another human life at risk. Better yet, the rope end of the floating device will be connected to shore so the swimmer can be pulled in within mere seconds.
