HECS STEALTHSCREEN

PATENTED WETSUITS

The HECS Stealthscreen Wetsuit is the only wetsuit in the world that acts like electrical camouflage, making you appear less threatening to marine life.

 

The patented HECS Stealthscreen technology embeds a carbon fibre mesh within the fabric of our wetsuit that effectively blocks your body's natural electrical output. That means you can get closer to marine species more than you ever imagined.

The human body generates electricity during muscle movement - particularly the heart and large muscles like glutes, lats, and quads. Even though the human energy signature is small, it can still be detected by marine species who take flight when approached.

To address this electroreception problem for diving professionals, HECS Aquatic developed a patented Stealthscreen technologythat incorporated the “Faraday cage principle" into the fabric of the wetsuit. The HECS Stealthscreen Wetsuit contains a mesh of conductive carbon fibre which neutralises the human body’s electrical fields. The HECS Stealthscreen Wetsuit conceals the human energy field, allowing you to get closer to marine life more than you ever imagined.
