System and Method for Alerting to Collision Threats Between Recreational Objects and Locating Recreational Objects

摘要

A system and method for alerting to collision threats between recreational objects and locating recreational objects. The system helps a first and a second recreational object avoid collisions in recreational settings and also identifies the location of the first recreational object in emergency situations. The system utilizes wireless communication between the recreational objects to generate a collision alert that indicates a collision threat. A transponder, which integrates into the first recreational object, exchanges radio signals with a transmitter and a receiver integrated into the second recreational object. A processor interprets the strength and position of the communications to determine a potential collision threat. A controller generates a collision alert at the transponder when the collision threat is imminent. The transponder also emits an emergency signal from the first recreational object to a GPS enabled receiver or radio for indicating the location and emergency communications to the second recreational object.
