The Robo-Gannet 2000

Exterminate! The state-of-the-art in seabird deterrents, Robo-Gannet is able to approach hostile gannets with ease, thanks to its lifelike styling. In reality its beak is a powerful hydraulic claw (corrosion-resistant titanium) capable of shearing through half an inch of steel plate.

When in range of seabirds that threaten divers, it emits a terrifying 200-decibel klaxon sound, which disorientates and scatters the flock, then ‘locks on’ to individuals with a laser designator and pursues them – with extreme prejudice. At only £25,000 no safety-conscious diver can afford to be without one.
