Abstract: A marine system (1) comprises a structure (10) that is designed for use in a marine environment, and that includes an exterior surface (11) that is at least intermittently exposed to water during actual use of the structure (10). The marine system (1) further comprises an anti-biofouling light arrangement (20) that is arranged and configured to emit anti-biofouling light towards the exterior surface (11) of the structure (10) in order to perform art anti-biofouling action on the exterior surface (11) of the structure (10), wherein the anti-biofouling light arrangement (20) includes a polarizing device (22) that is arranged in a path of the anti-biofouling light towards the exterior surface (11) of the structure (10) and configured to only let light waves of the anti-biofouling light of a specific polarization pass through.

Abstract: In an anti-biofouling context, an anti-biofouling system (20) is provided, which is configured to emit anti-biofouling light in an activated state thereof and to be applied to an object (10). Further, the anti-biofouling system (20) comprises a sensor system (30) that is configured to obtain measurement data relating to at least one structural feature of an anti-biofouling arrangement (1) including both the anti-biofouling system (20) and the object (10) in an actual case of the anti-biofouling system (20) being in place on the object (10). By having the sensor system (30) as mentioned in the anti-biofouling system (20), it is achieved that one or more structural aspects of the anti-biofouling arrangement (1) may be checked/monitored without a need for providing separate means for fulfilling such functionality.
