Backed by two decades of scientific research, Shark Shield technology consists of two electrodes which, when both are submerged, create a large 3D protective electrical field around the wearer. With the FREEDOM7, these electrodes are located at each end of an antenna thats attached to a power module worn on the ankle. Sharks have small short-range electrical receptors in their snouts used for feeding. When a shark comes within a few meters of the Shark Shield, the strong electronic pulses emitted by the device cause the shark to experience unbearable muscle spasms in these sensitive receptors, causing them to turn away.
This does not harm the shark in any way but merely causes it to experience a high level of discomfort. Electrical shark deterrent - and proven to deter Great Whites. Does not repel fish, crocodiles, dolphins or whales. Shark Shield CAN ONLY repel sharks and sting-rays. Used by the US & Australian Navy and mandated safety equipment in some industries.
