Poseidon Configuration:

• 3 global-view units, with 6 cameras
• Video coverage: 100 % of the pool
• Computer-aided monitoring: deep-end pool zones

The Poseidon System became operational at the Châtillon Malakoff pool in September 2000. The global-view cameras were installed during the pool's semi-annual draining. The electrical work and the final installation work were completed without interrupting the swimming stadium's activities. The Poseidon System's commissioning received substantial coverage in the press.

“70 to 80 people die every year in public swimming pools. To improve safety, pools can now equip themselves with a modern system. (.). The Chatillon Malakoff pool receives 300,000 people per year and this new method of supervision will make it possible to gain precious seconds in the case of an accident (.) the fact that emergency interventions are video taped will also serve as a means of limiting the liability of elected officials and local authorities.”
