Elsight’s advanced Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) connectivity solutions are empowering a new generation of drone-based shark detection and mitigation systems, transforming how Australia manages ocean safety.
Artificial Intelligence (AI)-powered drones equipped with high-resolution cameras can now detect and track sharks in real time, delivering immediate alerts to lifeguards and authorities. This shift from reactive to proactive management enables early warnings and reduces environmental impact, as drones replace harmful and maintenance-heavy deterrents.
However, operating drones effectively over vast and connectivity-challenged marine environments requires reliable communication. Elsight’s Halo connectivity platform ensures continuous, fail-safe BVLOS operations by aggregating multiple communication channels, including cellular, satellite, and RF links, into one resilient connection. This redundancy guarantees uninterrupted data transmission for live video feeds and AI-generated alerts, even in remote or signal-poor areas.
By combining AI-driven surveillance with Elsight’s robust BVLOS connectivity, operators can achieve continuous, wide-scale coastal monitoring, enhancing response speed, improving public safety, and paving the way for humane, data-driven shark management.
