Maytronics installs advanced AI Poseidon System at Paris 2024 Olympic Training Facilities

July 29, 2024

Maytronics Australia has equipped eight premier Paris 2024 Olympic training swimming facilities - dedicated to athlete preparation - with the advanced Maytronics AI Poseidon System.

This cutting-edge computer vision AI technology, developed by Poseidon Tech, ensures unparalleled safety and precision for athletes, enabling them to train under optimal conditions.

The AI Poseidon system, renowned as the world’s leading computer vision drowning detection technology for public and commercial pools, has been installed in the following facilities:

Chartres - Training base for the Australian team
Amiens - Home to the Japanese team
Fontainebleau - Chosen by the South Korean team
Taverny - Preferred by the Swiss team
Pau
Strasbourg
Saint Raphael
Colombes

The Poseidon system utilises a series of on-ground and underwater cameras to continuously analyse the movement of all swimmers, providing real-time analysis and ensuring the highest standards of safety. When the system detects a person motionless at the bottom of a pool for 10 seconds, an alarm is triggered via a siren with both audio and light signals. The alarm information, including the swimmer’s position and the time since detection, is displayed on a wall-mounted display and within the system interface, accompanied by images from the event.

The integration of the Poseidon system into these training facilities not only highlights Maytronics' commitment to innovation but also underscores the importance of safety in high-performance environments. Coaches and athletes can train with confidence, knowing they have access to real-time feedback and the most advanced drowning detection technology available.
