man overboard systems
A man overboard system is a safety mechanism used on ships and boats to quickly respond when someone accidentally falls into the water. These systems typically include visual and audible alarms to alert the crew, as well as devices like floating buoys or rescue boats to assist in recovery. Modern systems may also use technology such as RFID tags or tracking devices to locate the person in the water more effectively. The goal is to ensure rapid rescue, minimizing the time a person is exposed to potential dangers in the water.
