Life buoy

A life buoy is a vital safety device used in water rescue operations to assist in saving lives. It is a buoyant ring typically made of durable materials like hard plastic or foam, designed to float on water and support a person in distress. Life buoys are often bright orange or red for high visibility and feature reflective bands or markings to aid in locating them, especially in low light conditions. They are equipped with grab ropes or lines that rescuers can throw to individuals in trouble, allowing them to hold onto the buoy until help arrives. Life buoys are essential emergency equipment found on beaches, docks, and boats, providing immediate flotation and aiding in swift water rescue efforts to prevent drowning and ensure safety in aquatic environments.
