Hmmmm. I wonder how it can tell a "distressed" from "splashing fun" in the water? Is that the remote controller's call? K.

hahaha, Sandy! That was my initial reaction! When I heard it was controlled by a human, and that it would be able to get to a distressed swimmer that much faster, what is the swimmer to do? Recognize it as something to hold onto until a human comes? I don't know.

Hi K.! Good question?
