Abstract
A method, system, and computer readable storage to implement a swimming pool safety system. The safety system includes one or more inflatable nets (modules) which normally rest on the bottom of the pool. When a swimmer is in distress, the inflatable net that is closest to the swimmer can manually or automatically be instructed to inflate. Upon receiving the instruction to inflate, the net would inflate and then rise to the top of the pool, thereby taking the distressed swimmer to the surface of the pool where he or she can be rescued.
Claims20
An apparatus, comprising:
- an air tank;
- a first inflatable net comprising a lattice structure of first inflatable tubes;
- a second inflatable net comprising a lattice structure of second inflatable tubes;
- an electronic processing unit configured to read computer readable instructions from a non-transitory computer readable storage medium, the computer readable instructions, when executed by the electronic processing unit, cause the electronic processing unit to:
- receive an inflate command identifying a selected net out of a set comprising the first inflatable net and the second inflatable net;
- transmit a signal to initiate inflation of the selected net using air from the air tank.
A method, comprising:
- executing computer readable instructions on an electronic processing unit read from a non-transitory computer readable storage medium, causing:
- transmitting an inflate signal;
- in response to the inflate signal, an air tank inflates a first inflatable net located in a pool and does not inflate a second inflatable net located in the pool;
- and
- the first inflatable net rises in the pool in response to being inflated,
- wherein, the second inflatable net does not rise in response to the inflate signal,
- wherein the first inflatable net comprises a lattice structure of first inflatable tubes and the second inflatable net comprise a lattice structure of second inflatable tubes.
The method as recited in 14, wherein the inflate signal is transmitted to a valve controlling air flow from an air tank.
