Ploota

Opportunity

People of all ages and all over the world love to spend time in and around water. Swimming is the most practiced sport in the world but even the best swimmers can get into trouble in the water. No safety belt or helmet can help you when you or your kids are in danger in the water. From riptides and waves to cramps and fatigue, there are situations where your swimming might not be able to save your life. That’s where Ploota comes in.

Solution

PLOOTA is the world’s first automatic sensor controlled safety device for swimmers and watersport lovers. The device automatically detects an emergency situation and releases two inflatable cushions by an intelligent triggering system. The cushions are immediately filled with CO2 from an integrated cartridge. This innovative solution keeps your head above the water at all times - even when unconscious or panicking. PLOOTA not only lets you have more fun in the water, but also aims to make the water a safer place. It can also be activated manually when you realize that you are in a dangerous situation.
