The onboard NVIDIA Jetson Nano runs a specialized YOLOv8 AI model to detect rip currents in real-time.
Lifeguards can control the drone manually if needed, recieve notifications of threats, and provide assistance to struggling swimmers, all through a virtual interface.
We have developed a 3D printed mechanism for our DJI Matrice drones for dropping life preservers on swimmers caught in a rip current. The drone also includes marine speakers to instruct swimmers on how to escape the current.
