Watch!
See LifeFLOAT in action. This 3D animated video will provide a detailed look at the features and benefits of this invention.
Purpose
LifeFLOAT is a floatation necklace with a water detection device. If the necklace has been submerged for about 30 seconds or so, it activates. In an emergency where a child falls into the water, the necklace then inflates, forming a floating “donut” around one’s neck to ensure their head is kept above water. Now users can have the protection of a flotation device without the bulkiness of a conventional life vest. A clasp made of high strength magnets allows for quick and easy application and removal. LifeFLOAT can also be inflated manually.
The Problem
Flotation vests can be large, bulky, and restrictive, and it can be a struggle getting a child to wear one.
The Solution
… But now, there’s LifeFLOAT!

Story Behind the Invention
Inventor Christine Jutras of Canada has developed a floatation necklace with a water detection device. This innovative solution will promote water safety and peace of mind for parents worldwide.
During a family pool gathering, Christine noticed her mother worrying over young children playing near the pool. This concern sparked a dream in Christine of a lifesaving necklace, which forms an air donut around a child’s head, preventing drowning. This vision remained with her for eight months. With courage and determination, she brought this idea to life, creating LifeFLOAT!
But how does it work? If the necklace has been submerged for about 30 seconds, it activates. In an emergency where a child falls into the water, the necklace then inflates, forming a floating “donut” around their neck to ensure their head is kept above water. Now users can have the protection of a flotation device without the bulkiness of a conventional life vest. A clasp made of high strength magnets allows for quick and easy application and removal. The invention can also be inflated manually.
