Abstract
A light sequence generation system is provided on human associated aquatic objects such as surfboards, boogie boards, and kayaks to deter shark attacks. Light sources such as light emitting diodes (LEDs) are configured to emit sequences of pulses in arrangements and/or patterns that are unnatural to sharks. Batteries and/or capacitors may be used along with solar panels to power the light sources. The batteries and/or capacitors can also power electromagnetic repellents or may be completely shield to prevent attractant effects. The unnatural light sequence generation system can be used in conjunction with other chemical and electromagnetic repellents.

1-21. (canceled)
A human associated aquatic object, comprising:
- a plurality of light emitters;
- memory configured to maintain a sequence effective for repelling a particular type of shark;
- a transmitter configured to signal the plurality of light emitters using the sequence, wherein the sequence is configured to portray non-natural phenomena.
A method, comprising:
- retrieving a sequence from memory, the sequence effective for repellin a particular type of shark;
- transmitting the sequence to a plurality of light emitters, the plurality of light emitters included in a human associated object, wherein the sequence is configured to portray non-natural phenomena.
