I’m sure most of you have already seen this as i’m assuming most of you read engadget. Well for those of you that haven’t check it out. Being a former Lifeguard and Petty Officer in the U.S. Coast Guard, I find “The Poseidon System” and ingenious use of technology that can help save lives. No matter how many human eyes you have looking at something there is always a margin of error and even more so when fatigue kicks in from being out in the hot sun for 10 hours. I’m sure there are a lot of technologies like this that we haven’t heard about or are currently in development and I can’t wait to see them. Unfortunately cost of these types of systems will probably be the biggest limiting factors in widespread adoption of systems such as The Poseidon System.
