Life jacket Design for Flood Events in India


The outcome of my PhD research is a ‘slot n slide’ panel life jacket inspired by the traditional Indian sari. This design accommodates a diverse range of body anthropometry in a one-size-fits-all solution, achieved by an innovative inter-panel strapping system with integrated side adjustments. This life jacket also provides new and perceivable benefits, including improvements in utility for first responders, single product deployment, efficient

stowage and provisioning with easier donning and doffing, broad size

accommodation, and a single adjustment strap, improving usability for end-users.
