Bondi Beach tests the "Clever Buoy" shark detection system
Sydney's Bondi Beach is testing a shark warning system that detects large predators.
The "Clever Buoy" is a trial system that involves buoys installed 546 yards (500 meters) offshore. When the shark's distinct movements are detected, the device sends a message to the lifeguards.
The lifeguard will then warn all swimmers and beachgoers of the presence of sharks in the nearby waters. The "Clever Buoy" detects any self-propelled object larger than six feet (1.8 meters).
