Newcastle测试AI 救生员技术来减少溺水风险, 目的是在死亡增加的同时更快地应对。 Newcastle tests AI lifeguard tech to cut drowning risks, aiming for faster responses amid rising deaths.

Newcastle市今年夏天将在Wallsend游泳中心 首次试验人工智能救生员技术, 使用 Lynxight AI 摄影机实时监控游泳者, 并检测危险行为。 The City of Newcastle is launching a Hunter-first trial of AI-powered lifeguard technology at Wallsend Swimming Centre this summer, using Lynxight AI cameras to monitor swimmers in real time and detect dangerous behaviors. 该系统向救生员防水智能监视器发出警报,旨在将反应时间缩短六倍,并应对池内可见度挑战。 The system, which sends alerts to lifeguards’ waterproof smartwatches, aims to improve response times by up to six times and address visibility challenges at the pool. 它不记录个人数据或可识别的视频,而是侧重于运动探测。 It does not record personal data or identifiable video, focusing instead on movement detection. 试验是在澳大利亚2025年淹死人数升的背景下进行的,该国2025年报告的淹死人数升了357人,比10年平均水平增加了27%,新南威尔士州的死亡人数为129人. The trial comes amid a national rise in drowning deaths—357 reported in Australia in 2025, a 27% increase over the 10-year average, with 129 in NSW. 该技术已在超过 75 个澳大利亚游泳池中使用，支持但不会取代人类救生员。 The technology, already used in over 75 Australian pools, supports but does not replace human lifeguards. 培训正在进行之中,该系统定于12月启动,其成果为可能扩展到其他内陆集合库提供了信息。 Training is underway, and the system is set to launch in December, with results informing potential expansion to other inland pools.
