Case history shows that vigilance is difficult to maintain and by providing a training tool, the purpose is intended to increase standards of lifeguarding and create a safer swimming environment.

In simple terms, the manikin replicates the common shape of either a child on their side or on their back at the bottom of the pool. The manikin is self-weighted and when in place it gives a similar appearance to that of a body. The manikins can be used to confirm water clarity and visibility, for example, as part of a manikin visibility test and during lifeguard training scenarios. It can also be used to test visibility on lifeguard scanning zones. The training scenario will involve the candidate spotting the location of the shadow manikin and then performing the necessary recovery.

The manikins can be used to confirm water clarity and visibility e.g. as part of a manikin visibility test and during lifeguard training scenarios.

The training scenario will involve the candidate spotting the location of the shadow manikin and recovering it.
