  • Patent number: 11603636
    Abstract: An interlocking modular smart seawall diversion and recreation system provides step-shaped diverter sections arranged side-by-side along a shoreline. The diverter sections slope from a base end up towards an upper end. To break kinetic energy of waves, and divert waves, the diverter sections form steps with curved risers and horizontal treads. The system forms a diversion path for the waves that reach the upper end of the modular walls and recirculate the wave energy back to divertor chamber and natural environment. Foundation pilings project into the ground and extend up to support the wall sections. The bottom end of foundation pilings terminates at sheared attachments having a tapered cross section and an edge for securely anchoring into the ground. A platform atop the diverter sections provides a pathway; a lighted platform for recreational activities; and transparent skylight portals for observing aquatic wildlife in water below and creating an indigenous ecosystem.

  • Patent number: 11072900
    Abstract: A system is provided for diverting water at a shoreline to prevent erosion. The smart breakwall diversion system provides a resilient design that uses incoming water-flow to reduce the impact of wave action on a shoreline. Features of the system include openings and diverters that absorb and redirect the flow of wave forces. A laser-cut pattern on a steel cover of the front of the system can be artist-designed and act as protection against floating debris, as well as prevent fish and other aquatic life from entering. A step diverter design reduces velocity of incoming water and redirects it back towards the body of water in a controlled manner. The smart breakwall diversion system decreases the impact of wave energy on immediate and surrounding waterfront property.
