			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Aqvalight: the ultimate in the diving world</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://www.sportechblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/acuasub1.jpg" target="_blank"><img class="alignright" title="acvuasub" src="http://www.sportechblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/acvuasub.png" alt="" width="225" height="300" /></a>The products of the line <strong>Aqvalight</strong> (<em>patent pending</em>) are developed to optimize safety conditions during diving activities. The ascent is a simple and efficient tool that resolves a problem that often influences the <strong>diving</strong>: the point of ascent. This is a circuit Led drowned in a resin waterproof high compressive strength generated by depth. Powered by a battery with the same characteristics of underwater resistance, is placed a few meters from the bottom and set the anchor cable.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">In immersion <strong>turns on automatically</strong> and at this point allows divers to move in total peace of mind and security during the dive. The brightness of the Led light Strip allows you to find even at distances of <strong>over 30 meters</strong>, although in poor visibility conditions.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The indicator lifts Aqvalight completes the immersion by eliminating the stress of finding the point of ascent.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Available in two versions: one for recreational dives to depths of up to <strong>60 meters</strong> and one technical professional who can get up to <strong>200 meters</strong>.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The Personal Light uses the same <span id="more-946"></span>principle but is adapted in terms of size and power capacity of batteries to be used to give visibility to the diver. You can fix the cylinder or the thigh and allows an excellent visibility even under adverse conditions. Ideal for groups that must remain in constant contact.<br />
Aqvalight products will be presented in the Technisub stand during the next Eudi Show in Bologna from the 11th to the 14th of  February 2011</p>
<p><strong>Technical features Aqvalight</strong><br />
Flexible and waterproof  Led strip<br />
Led high intensity 80 lumens each. 24 for the indicator lift and  6 for the personal light<br />
Powered 12 Volts ( 8 batteries1,5V)<br />
Automatically turn system</p>
<p><strong>Aqvaspeed: highly innovative wireless systems for monitoring performance in training of swimmers of all levels</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://www.sportechblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/nuotatore_led.jpg"><img class="alignright" title="nuotatore_led" src="http://www.sportechblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/nuotatore_led.jpg" alt="" width="380" height="266" /></a>The <strong>Virtual Trainer line Aqvaspeed</strong> (<em>patent pending</em>)  is a tool that allows you to monitor real-time performance in training of the swimmer.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The operating principle is based on the ability to schedule in wireless mode, through the supplied remote control or the <strong>PC</strong> or <strong>Smartphone</strong>, the <strong>controller</strong>.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The system allows you to store each type of training program, schedule and send it to the Led circuit , protected by a waterproof sheathing, of length equal to the size of the swimming pool used for training.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The Strip with circuit Led can be located on the bottom of the tub if constant depth, or placed on the surface at the lane line breakwater.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">At the time of the beginning of the training session the system begins to send to strip planned pulses <strong>LEDs</strong> that illuminate in a predetermined time and progressively for the expected number of tanks.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The athlete, with each type of light strip placement in the tub, sees the constant stream of light and can easily realize real-time if the pace that is holding is consistent with that planned or if it is behind or ahead. The accuracy of perception is <strong>less than half a second</strong> and strong luminosity of the LEDs used allows a perfect visibility in any lighting condition. The system can be powered from a normal outlet through the transformer provided in kit or battery (duration <strong>up to 5 hours</strong>).</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">There are multiple solutions to light strip length, for tanks from <strong>25 to 50 meters</strong>.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://www.sportechblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/kitacqvaspeed2.png"><img class="alignright" title="kitacqvaspeed" src="http://www.sportechblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/kitacqvaspeed2.png" alt="" width="370" height="261" /></a>On request you can have different lengths.</p>
<p>There are also two versions of the multicolor <strong>LEDs</strong>, with six different shades, useful for concurrent multiple workouts in the same lane, athletes and athletes, for monocolor usually train alone. The basic kit  controller to manage the programming of eight lanes simultaneously.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The kit is provided in two versions: <strong>25 meters lane or 50 meters</strong>. The extra lanes can be purchased separately.<br />
Training programs Programs can be loaded manually on PC or Smartphone through applications available, or you can buy a custom program according to their physical characteristics and objectives. This opportunity is available in the commercial area or via the link &#8220;<strong>Nuoto+ of Giovanni Franceschi</strong>&#8220;.</p>
<p><strong>Technical features Aqvaspeed</strong><br />
Controller that manage until 8 lanes<br />
Flexible and waterproof Led strip  25 or 50 meters<br />
30 Led with 20 lumens power each meter<br />
12 Led powered at the same time<br />
Wi-fi access point<br />
Powered 12 Volts</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Safe public pools with Angeleye It is essential to give swimmers certainty, peace of <img class="alignright size-full wp-image-2341" title="angel1" src="http://www.sportechblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/angel1.jpg" alt="angel1" width="400" height="386" />mind, and the awareness of being in a facility where the safety level is high and one’s safeness is constantly monitored as far as the greatest danger is concerned: drowning.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Monitoring the pools by qualified personnel is a somewhat difficult activity, as the bottom of the pool is hard to see (because reflected light, waves and floating swimmers do not always permit a full view of the activities at the bottom of the pool). Distraction is also a factor.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Thanks to the <strong>AngelEye new visual technology</strong>, a new lifeguard monitors all the activities at the pool. This safety system has been specifically designed to control the activity of the swimmers in the swimming facilities.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">It can evaluate dangerous situations and let the lifeguards know that there is an unsafe situation in progress. This is accomplished by means of hand-held devices in a quick and effective manner, thus providing immediate and focused assistance. The implementation of the AngelEye drowning detection system is composed of three phases:</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">- a layout design is developed according to the plan of the pools</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">- installation on the walls of the pool of specific detection portholes (available in two models: deck hatch or niche portholes)</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">- housing of the central unit and the associated connection to the detection and warning devices of the AngelEye system. The designers will fine tune the system to make sure it works under any brightness and pool attendance conditions, up to and including the final testing and inspection. The company also offers assistance and support services.</p>
