The Amphibious Tent is a fully inflatable, rigid-free structure designed for recreational, educational, and emergency use in both terrestrial and aquatic environments. Its circular architecture and lightweight configuration make it suitable for rapid deployment and multi-purpose activities, while its advanced stabilization system ensures safety and functionality in varied terrain and weather conditions.

The tent's stability is guaranteed by a perimeter hydropneumatic skirt composed of three toroidal chambers made of 500 mm Hypalon. These rings, derived from inflatable boat technology, act as a giant suction cup, allowing the structure to adhere to any surface, including uneven ground or floating on water. This feature also enables secure anchoring during storms and prevents displacement by wind or waves.

Constructed from a combination of blackout PVC and polypropylene, the tent provides effective insulation, weather resistance, and thermal regulation. The covered area spans 100 square meters and includes 40 individual sleeping pods (600 mm width each), distributed evenly along the interior perimeter. Two inflatable access tunnels serve as entry and exit points.

The tent incorporates versatile use modes. On land, it offers an enclosed recreational space for games and physical activities including a central "giant eye" and a soap-covered climbing dome. In aquatic environments, it functions as a floating platform with half-meter water depth inside for immersive play or low-impact aquatic therapy. Optional features include a transparent floor, central heating, tangential air ventilation, and a 75 m² double-roof heated pool for year-round use. White LED lighting surrounds the top ring for nighttime operation, and an internal bidirectional water circulation system supports hygiene and safety.

Additional equipment includes misting nozzles for climate control and an integrated 12V centrifugal pump to manage internal water levels. The tent’s empty weight is approximately 200 kg, allowing it to be transported and deployed using small vehicles. The system’s inflatable architecture simplifies packing, transport, and storage, making it ideal for municipalities, schools, parks, disaster relief organizations, and temporary event operators.

The Amphibious Tent is designed with mass manufacturing in mind. It uses standard inflatable technologies and materials commonly available in marine-grade product lines. Fabrication requires conventional welding and sealing equipment used in producing inflatable boats, tents, and outdoor recreational gear, ensuring scalability and cost-effectiveness.

In terms of market application, the tent serves both public and private sectors: educational institutions can use it for science and play-based learning; municipalities and tourism operators for aquatic or nature-based recreation; and emergency services for flood-prone or post-disaster shelters with integrated water safety. Its adaptability and ease of deployment allow for temporary installations in parks, festivals, riverbanks, or even swimming pools.

The Amphibious Tent proposes a new paradigm for mobile infrastructure: lightweight, safe, engaging, and resilient. It bridges the gap between play, protection, and preparedness, offering a novel approach to temporary architecture that respects the dynamics of land and water alike.
