The purpose of this presentation is to update the conference attendees on the R&D project that was conducted by UL to compile data on infant and child manikins currently incorporated into various life jacket certifications standards. With manikins not currently an acceptable path towards certification in North America, this project was conducted to start compiling in-water performance to compare to existing human subject data for currently USCG Approved devices and USCG reference test devices. Speaker: Christopher James, UL LLC, Principal Engineering Manager
