摘要:
A series (e.g., string) of flashing lights can temporarily blind animals that view the lights within about 25 feet of the lights, deterring them from even approaching the series of flashing lights. The series of flashing lights is placed about the perimeter of an area to be protected. In one embodiment, the flashing lights are gas discharge bulbs connected in series and driven by an electric fence charger.

A conducted electrical weapon (“CEW”) launches wire-tethered electrodes from multiple cartridges to provide a current through a human or animal target to impede locomotion of the target. The CEW includes a handle and one or more deployment units. A handle and each deployment unit include a processing circuit and memory. A handle may provide operation and usage records to a deployment unit for storage. The information stored on a deployment unit may be unalterable once written. A handle may log a record of usage, deployment units, and other deployment information. The log file may be available to an electronic device through a secure wireless protocol.

An electric fence monitor is operable to provide an audible and/or visual indicator of an operating condition (i.e., falter no-fault) of an electric fence and electric fence box. The electric fence monitor is operable to remain continuously connected between the electric fence and earth ground during normal operation of the fence.
摘要:
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.

An electronic control device for interfering with locomotion by a human or animal target includes a processor and stimulus signal generator. Upon engagement of a trigger by an operator, a stimulus signal is provided to electrodes for a time period to interfere with the skeletal muscles of the target. An indication is provided to the operator corresponding to the time period to alert the operator before deactivation of the stimulus signal. In response to the alert, the operator may reengage the trigger to continue or resume the stimulus signal.

Embodiments of the present invention relate generally to methods of moving or herding fish, such that the fish are protected from being removed from their natural aquatic environments when water containing these fish is withdrawn and used for industrial purposes. Additionally, the invention relates to a method for shooing or driving fish out of a specific region using at least one screen, including applying current and/or voltage pulses to the screen in order to facilitate the moving of the fish.
摘要:
Method for the control of an electric fence energizer of any given power, guaranteeing that, during each pulse emitted by the energizer, any human body that might have come into contact with the electric fence since a recent pulse does not run the risk of receiving a dangerous electric shock by reason of the pulse in progress.
摘要:
A cartridge for a system that uses a stimulus signal for immobilizing a human or animal target includes a propellant and a projectile propelled away from about the cartridge by the propellant. The projectile includes a power supply, a waveform generator, and several electrodes. The waveform generator is powered by the power supply. The waveform generator includes a processor. The electrodes complete a stimulus delivery circuit to conduct a current through the target. The waveform generator generates the current to include a first series of pulses and a second series of pulses. The second series begins after the first series is completed. The first series has a first pulse repetition rate determined by the processor. Each pulse of the first series has a first pulse width of from about 10 to about 1000 microseconds. Each pulse of the first series delivers through the target a first charge per pulse of from about 50 to about 500 microcoulombs. The second series has a second pulse repetition rate determined by the processor to be less than the first pulse repetition rate. Each pulse of the second series delivers through the target a charge greater than a minimum charge per pulse. A product of the second pulse repetition rate and the minimum charge per pulse is greater than 250.
摘要:
A method of operating an electric fence energiser, including the steps of: storing energy in an energy storage element, and transferring energy from the energy storage element to an inductive element, the method characterised by the steps of using a rectifying element to prevent the transfer of energy from the inductive element into a load on the output of the energiser while the transfer of energy from the energy storage element to the inductive element occurs, and releasing the energy held by the inductive element once an energy threshold on the inductive element has been reached.
