CIT team shortlisted as one of top 20 global finalists for Dyson award
The CIT students were inspired to invent their HydroFLOcean (H-FLO) device following the deaths of workmen TJ O’Herlihy and Bryan Whelan in Limerick, who drowned in August 2015 after their work platform collapsed whilst they were carrying out maintenance works on Thomond Bridge over the River Shannon.
The H-FLO device is designed to separate the user from the platform when it is submerged in water.
