The researchers also managed to get 22 bites from the sharks; 12 on the Kevlar-neoprene material (six on 5 mm, six on 3 mm) and 10 bites on standard neoprene (six on 5 mm, four on 3 mm).

The Kevlar camera will have the same specs as the rest of the Q2 lineup, which offers a 47.3-megapixel sensor and a fixed lens with a digital zoom that adjusts to 28, 35, 50, and 75mm focal lengths.
