A water soluble organic mixture introduced in water as a deterrent to sharks. This model has been tested and has proven to be effective at deterring sharks from foods tested (other fishes and chicken). This organic deterrent comprises a mixture of iodinated water with garcinia gumma gutta and spices.

A rod for repelling sharks is disclosed. Magnets are connected to the rod along its length. If necessary, the rod may be extended. Additionally, one or more flotation devices may be connected to the rod to manipulate or adjust the buoyancy of the system, depending on the user's objective(s). The rod is connected to a fishing line once a fish is hooked and is in close proximity to the boat or other structure from which the fisherman is fishing. The weight of the rod and magnets cause the rod to slide down to the end of the fishing line, where the rod will come in contact with the hooked mouth of the fish. As the fish struggles during the fight, the rod creates a protective magnetic field around the fish to deter sharks from engaging the fish.

The present invention discloses a shark resistant composite fabric that has an outer layer of a woven or knitted shark bite resistant fabric material; an intermediate layer neoprene. An inner layer of a woven or knitted shark bite resistant fabric material may also be provided.

Disclosed is an apparatus that is able to generate an image to deter a shark from attacking a watercraft (e.g. a surf-craft). Also disclosed are methods of manufacturing and retrofitting watercraft to include the apparatus that is able to generate an image to deter a shark from attacking the watercraft.

A garment to repel underwater aquatic creatures. A first component for generating a control signal and a second component for receiving the control signal and transmitting an electromagnetic signal responsive thereto, an electromagnetic field created by the electromagnetic signal radiating from the second component into an aquatic area surrounding the garment. A water sensor disposed on the garment for activating the first and second components to transmit the electromagnet signal when the water sensor senses presence of water.

A geofenced autonomous aquatic drone for repelling sharks from a shoreline. The drone employs a buoyant housing resembling a portion of a predator such as an orca whale. A battery positioned within the drone is recharged through a floating inductive charging station. A transmitter unit coupled to at least one under water transducer introduces certain sounds, such as reproduction of orca whale or dolphin calling sounds. A propulsion system controlled a microprocessor receives location information via DGPS for providing a geofence around an area to be patrolled. The drone travels within the geofence area, monitored by the DGPS receiver, while said transducer produces certain sounds and or a solution of shark repellant is dispensed.

Described is a chondrichthyan repelling system comprising at least one fin comprising at least one electrically conductive electrode for connection to an electrical signal generator. In use, the electrical signal generator generates electrical signals to the at least one electrode to thereby radiate an electrical field which repels chondrichthyans. Also disclosed are various fin designs incorporating one or more electrodes, and a watercraft having one or more fins as described. Various means of connecting the electrodes to the electrical signal generator are also described.

The present invention relates to a wearable universal wireless controller configured to generate control signals for controlling a plurality of devices without the need for hardware or software modification. Such controller comprises a plurality of stretch sensors and switch sensors associated with at least one glove or similar structure configured for being associated with a users' hand. The controller detects finger and hand movements and generates the appropriate communication signal based on values contained in a configuration table. The same wireless controller can control a plurality of devices without the need for reprogramming or mode selections.

A wrist-worn electromagnetic pulse generating wearable device for repelling great white sharks, tiger sharks, and bull sharks. i.e., the lethal shark breeds. The device includes an artificial intelligence/machine learning component (AI/ML) trained on a dataset including characteristics of the lethal shark breeds. A hydroactive sensor activates the device upon immersion in marine or fresh water. A signal generating component, responsive to AI/ML component, generates an ELF signal that radiates out to a 4 m area surrounding the user to repel shark attacks. Wave pulse characteristics, such as frequency, waveshape, and magnitude are determined by the AI/ML algorithm based on the detected shark breed. Antenna design based on fractal geometry (e.g., the T-square fractal, or the Sierpinski Triangle) generates an ideal isotropic radiation pattern. The wrist-mounted form factor of the inventive device offers improved performance over prior art devices.
