Session 2
hear from
Ocean guardian about shark deterrent 2020 innovations
Click for the recording  

Sharks have short-range electrical receptors in their snouts called the “Ampullae of Lorenzini” used for finding food.  ​Ocean Guardian’s Shark Shield Technology has been developed to specifically take advantage of these highly sensitive receptors, creating a powerful three-dimensional electrical field which cause spasms turning the sharks away, including Great Whites. As dolphins, whales, fish, turtles, etc. are without these receptors, Shark Shield Technology has negligible effect on them.

session 1
​hear from ​RPELA - on board Shark repellent

emerging technology information
FIND LINK TO THE RECORDING ON OUR INFORMATION PAGE

The Rpela is a battery-powered, water-activated electric personal deterrent fitted to a surfboard that produces an electric field around the surfer. It is designed specifically to deter sharks from approaching or biting surfers by disrupting a sharks’ sensitive electro-reception organs. It has been recently reconfigured from previous models to increase the strength of its electric field with a view to increasing its effectiveness. ​

COCC out in the community

Well as with everyone, everywhere, COVID19 sure had an impact on any in person information sessions, wide technology demonstrations, or events.  We did select a few opportunities to meet, grow our community, widen our programs and fundraise.  Thanks to all who helped and attended!   Our Board of Directors continued to meet weekly to keep this program on its course.
