Abstract

NOAA pinniped tags by Flipper Force is a Cal Poly Humboldt engineering group tasked with designing tags for NOAA for seals and sea lions that are manufacturable under $0.50. One of the only groups to do injection molding, this group's tags have a promising future for practical use by NOAA for many years to come.
