PROJECT R.O.I
Rocket Operated Inflatable

How do we put missiles to good use?

Project R.O.I is the culmination of a collaborative effort between the         

HUJI Rocketry Club and the Industrial Design Department at Bezalel.

An intuitive, compact & cheap rocket-borne lifebuoy designed to save

Lives of immigrants drowning in the Mediterranean sea. The buoy auto inflates

In contact with water, and features quick-connect buckles enabling survivors

To gather up, increasing survivability and visibility for Search and Rescue operations.

​​

Weighing just under 200 grams, and at a packed volume of 0.12 L,

the R.O.I units could be packed by the dozens inside a rescue

missile launched from a coast guard ship or a scouting aircraft.

An academic collaboration project with Roi Mizrahi and the HUJI Rocketry Club.
