Description

The TechFloat is a versatile and comprehensive rescue solution, designed for rescue in any condition throughout all seasons. With its inflatable design and integrated lifting capacity, the TechFloat serves as an all-in-one rescue and recovery tool, suitable for a wide range of scenarios and applications, including:

  • Swift Water Rescues
  • Still Water Retrievals
  • Ice Rescues
  • High Angle Operations
  • UAS/Drone Rescue

    The TechFloat is worn with an over-the-shoulder strap, which connects the rescuer directly to the victim and leaves both hands free. The inflatable is removed from its valise, and easily thrown to the victim. The unit comes with 100 feet or 200 feet of highly durable floating line and has water-activated inflation. After activation, the victim places the inflated bladder around themselves, and the rescuer is free to retrieve the victim by means of the line attached between them. UAS/Drone Rescue, Deliver underarm flotation device to victim at a distance

    The Techfloat can be deployed to a distressed person-in-water from a distance using a drone. The inflatable is removed from the valise and attached to the drone, flown above and dropped to the victim. The underarm flotation device activates upon hitting the water and the victim can swim in. The floating line stays connected to the victim and the rescuer and is available in 100 ft. or 200 ft. lengths and is used to retrieve the victim.
