SwamCam, a leader in AI-powered pool alarm systems, is proud to partner with Olympic gold medalist Lilly King to enhance water safety awareness and drowning prevention efforts. Kicking off with National Water Safety Month in May, this partnership will highlight the significance of water safety education. Ms. King will share content on practical tips and strategies to stay safe in and around water, including the benefits of SwamCam’s patented OverWatchAI detection technology that provides early-warning alerts before anyone enters the pool’s water.
“As a competitive swimmer, I’ve spent countless hours in the water and understand the importance of pool safety firsthand,” says Lilly King. “That’s why I’ve taken a close look at the technologies out there designed to prevent drowning. After reviewing other drowning detection products, it became clear that SwamCam’s OverWatchAI is the best on the market. Its proactive approach—detecting danger before someone even enters the water—sets a new standard for pool safety. I’m excited to collaborate long-term with SwamCam to educate families on water safety and promote this life-saving technology.”
Drowning remains the leading cause of death for children ages 1–4, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The latest CDC reports reveal that over 4,500 people drown annually in the U.S., with numbers rising. Traditional pool alarms, which focus on “drowning detection,” activate after a child enters the water, potentially delaying life-saving intervention.
“Our mission at SwamCam is to provide innovative solutions to help prevent drowning and enhance pool safety before anyone enters the water when they are not expected to,” says Asher Brand, CEO of SwamCam. “Partnering with Lilly King allows us to further our efforts in educating the public and promoting a safer pool environment. SwamCam combines powerful AI-driven technology and sophisticated camera systems to deliver easy-to-use, comprehensive pool area surveillance designed for pools, hot tubs and any other open water areas that may pose a potential drowning risk.”
A New Era of Proactive Pool Safety from SwamCam
Unlike traditional pool alarms that alert when someone enters the water, SwamCam combines AI with sophisticated camera monitoring to identify someone when they enter the pool area. By scanning the pool area multiple times per second, SwamCam’s patented OverWatchAI discerns human movement at greater distances than its competitors while filtering out non-human motion. When someone enters the monitored pool area, users are alerted inside the home, outside the home and remotely, even during WiFi outages.
SwamCam offers single-camera and dual-camera systems utilizing advanced OverWatchAI technology to deliver comprehensive pool monitoring. This technology significantly reduces false alarms and provides instant, accurate alerts. SwamCam’s iOS and Android app integration also allows homeowners to receive real-time alerts directly on their smartphones, customize their system, and manage access to the pool area.
