The company "CPR BARS", as a resident of the Free Port of Vladivostok (FPV), has begun developing a modular device to ensure safety on water transport - the system will automatically warn and shut down the vessel's engine if health problems arise or if crew members or passengers fall overboard. The system is scheduled to be released to the market in 2026, with sales volumes estimated at 50 units per month. Under an agreement with the Far East and Arctic Development Corporation (FEDC), 560 thousand rubles are being invested in the project.
According to Denis Korchevny, CEO of “CPR BARS”, the device has been developed for use on small vessels and boats with a crew of up to 10 people. The modular device is the first device in a series, and its further modernization is planned by increasing the number and functionality of new modules, which will allow the system to be scaled up and used to ensure safety on higher-class sea and river transport.
