What is U SAFE?

The U SAFE is a self-propelled, remotely controllable system designed to be a fast and accurate “aquatic robot”, capable of quickly reaching a person in distress.
It has a U-shapped hull with two turbines, one on each leg, which allows the device to operate regardless of which side is facing up.
The behavior and controllability of the maritime rescue remotely controllable lifebuoy is highly effective due to the sophisticated guidance and navigation system.
It’s development aimed at simple and intuitive use, in order to allow anyone to perform a rescue, without previous training, maintaining high accuracy.
The most important advantage of the U SAFE buoy lies in the ability to allow a rescue under the most adverse conditions, such as rough seas or rocky areas. In this way, it prevents both the rescuer and the vessel from being in danger.

Fast Rescue

Due to its advanced technology and engineering, the U SAFE buoy can operate regardless which side is turned up, allowing it to perform in difficult weather or sea conditions.
The rescue mission becomes easier and more efficient with its dual turbine engine. The U SAFE buoy is patented in 71 countries.
