OceanAlpha’s Dolphin3 Remote Controlled Rescue Buoy: Revolutionising water rescue operations
|
|
Water rescue operations have long relied on lifeguards, boats and helicopters to save lives. However, harsh conditions, distance and response time often pose serious challenges. Enter the Dolphin3 Remote Controlled Rescue Buoy, a groundbreaking innovation that combines speed, safety and smart technology to transform the future of aquatic emergency response. The Dolphin3 is a remote-controlled, motorised rescue buoy designed to rapidly reach and support drowning victims or individuals in distress in aquatic environments. Compact, durable and highly visible, this device offers a quick and effective alternative to traditional rescue methods.
Key features
Real-world impact
Already adopted by emergency response teams in several countries, the Dolphin3 has proven effective in live rescue scenarios. In one documented incident, the device reached a panicked swimmer in under 20 seconds, providing buoyancy and allowing the victim to be safely towed to shore, all without endangering the rescue team.

Key features
- Remote-controlled operation
With a user-friendly remote control, the Dolphin3 can be precisely guided through water, allowing rescuers to navigate around obstacles and reach victims quickly, even in rough seas or dangerous currents. - High-speed performance
The Dolphin3 is equipped with dual electric propellers, enabling it to travel at speeds up to 7m per second (25,2km/h). This speed is significantly faster than a swimmer or even some lifeboats in short-range situations. - Buoyant and stable
Made of high-density polyethylene and marine-grade components, the buoy is designed for high buoyancy and stability. It can support multiple victims, keeping them afloat until further help arrives. - Rechargeable battery system
Powered by a long-lasting lithium battery, the Dolphin3 offers up to 30 minutes of continuous operation on a single charge, sufficient for most rapid response needs. - GPS and autonomous navigation (optional models)
Advanced models come with GPS and autonomous return features, allowing the device to either follow pre-set coordinates or return automatically if communication is lost. - Rugged design
