FITUS SPORTS CLUBS INTRODUCES NEW WAVE DROWNING PREVENTION SYSTEM.


Fitus Sports Clubs introduces new WAVE Swimmer Safety System 



Vilnius, Lithuania - Elite sports club, Fitus, is proud to announce the newest drowning detection technology to enhance swimmer safety in their three-track, 25-meter-long swimming pool.


Even though Fitus’ aquatics facilities have dedicated and vigilant staff watching over the welfare of people in the water, the risk of drowning is always present. The WAVE system provides another layer of security as an extra precaution because safety is Fitus’ highest priority. 

The WAVE system relies on lightweight, comfortable headsets worn by swimmers. The headsets communicate wirelessly with the system twice every second, and enable WAVE to accurately determine how long the swimmer has been under water. If submerged for longer than 20+ seconds, wearables (such as bracelets and pendants) worn by staff will begin to vibrate to make them aware that a swimmer may be in trouble. If the swimmer stays under water, the system will alert using audio-visual alarms. Alerting staff within this time dramatically decreases the chances of drowning and makes the pool safer. 


“It is 2024. We have the technology that can greatly reduce the chance of a drowning impacting any family,” said WAVE Co-Founder & CEO Mark Caron. “Aquatics directors have told us WAVE is changing the way their staff behave. They’re more focused because the system makes their job more interesting.”


*WAVE products are designed to supplement, not replace, vigilant human supervision.

ABOUT WAVE DROWNING PREVENTION SYSTEMS

Co-founders Mark Caron and Dave Cutler founded WAVE after a tragedy at a town park where Dave lived. A nine-year-old boy drowned despite five lifeguards and six camp counselors watching the water that day. After learning that drowning is all too common and that most are preventable, Mark and Dave, assembled a dedicated team of water safety experts, aquatic professionals, engineers, and designers and set out to create a reliable, simple to use, and affordable drowning detection system. The result of their collective efforts is WAVE, and it will change aquatic safety forever.


WAVE is based in Norwalk, Connecticut, USA..
