About Us

Origins

River Sentry was founded in the aftermath of the Central Texas floods in July 2025. The realization that no effective flash flood warning system was in existence at the time prompted founder Ian Cunningham, an airline pilot and ex-naval aviator, to form a small team with a single mission: Prevent Future Flooding Fatalities

The Idea

The team, based in Liberty Hill, Texas, developed a new type of flood alarm system based on three principles:

Effect, Simplicity, Resiliency

The Result

Just 3 months after the founding of the company, the first River Sentry RS-1A was installed, and within 6 months, over 100 RS-1A's were in place along the Guadalupe River protecting campers, vacationers, and residents of Kerr County
