Description
Summary:Drowning is one of the biggest cause of death in the world. Indonesia is an archipelago and is one of the countries with the longest coastline in the world. Pantai Selatan (southern coastline) is one of popular tourist destinations in Indonesia. Geographically, Pantai Selatan is directly bordered by the Indian Ocean, hence the oceanwaves tend to be high and making Pantai Selatan (including Pangandaran Beach) very dangerous. Helps and assistance provided for the drowning victims provided by BALAWISTA are still currently done in conventional way, and in a certain situation and condition it can be very dangerous. A means that is capable of carrying out a rescue mission to reduce the risk of more victims is needed. The existing product that can be controlled remotely still has several flaws when used by BALAWISTA Pangandaran. It is necessary to design a special aid facility for drowning victims to support the rescue process by BALAWISTA Pangandaran, a means that can be controlled remotely.
