Organisations come together to ensure pool safety
RLSS UK and GLL have been working together with pool safety assisted lifeguard technology company Lynxight.
The partnership aims to thoroughly test the latter’s system with a view to improve how lifeguards and operators safeguard pool users across the UK and Ireland.
Lynxight’s technology complements the work of trained lifeguards, monitoring pool users and alerting lifeguards via smartwatches about anyone who may require assistance.
GLL conducted a six-month trial with the technology, which led to further adaptations of the system. GLL said it plans to install the Lynxight system in several of its swimming pools over the coming months.
For GLL, it is the first major initiative to be developed by its new product innovation campus – which brings together physical infrastructure, equipment, content, programming, digital tools and strategic partnerships – to facilitate innovation and advancement within its customer offer.
