ABSTRACT:
An infrared light emitter forms a beam of infrared (IR) light directed onto a set of mirrors or reflecting surfaces arranged to form a closed path about a swimming pool and spaced above the pool deck a sufficient amount so as to be intercepted by anyone who might walk through it. After the reflected beam has traversed the closed path about the pool, it then impinges upon a light detector. An electric circuit provides a continuous alarm which can either be sound or visual upon beam interruption and which must be manually reset before it becomes inactive. The monitoring system may be actuated so the operative state by a handheld radio frequency transmitter. Electrical power for the system can be a rechargeable battery which is recharged by a solar array mounted directly onto a part of the system obviating the need for interconnecting cable wiring.
