Smart Environmental Marine Systems (SEMS) is developing scalable offshore infrastructure platforms combining non-lethal shark mitigation with autonomous ocean intelligence.
Traditional shark mitigation relies on physical capture. SEMS influences behaviour through technology, transforming coastal safety from a single-purpose expense into a multi-use intelligence asset.
Modular design allows for protection of perimeters from 30m pilot spans to full commercial beach deployments.
Designed specifically to avoid entanglement using controlled subsurface geometry and breakaway links.
Each surface buoy operates as an independent smart station containing solar generation, system diagnostics, and remote monitoring.
A controlled-depth subsurface backbone creates a distributed deterrent field without creating a physical barrier for marine life.
Utilizes a high-voltage, ultra-low average current pulsed system designed to overstimulate shark electrosensory systems.
Computational COMSOL modelling and mechanical wave loading analysis.
Field measurement, electrode durability, and material corrosion testing.
Offshore trial deployment of 3 autonomous buoys across a 30-60m span.
Full-beach deployment and integration with existing networks.
"Traditional shark mitigation represents an ongoing operational cost. SCDA-Hybrid transforms that footprint into a multi-purpose coastal intelligence asset capable of supporting science, climate research, and coastal management."
