Yikes!advanced diving any level without training is like a do it yourself vasectomy kit it may get the job done but i would not recommend it lol
It seems that in my fury I spoke too hastily. It turns out that this is a bug that makes the desktop interface software mess up dive data. Mares created a patch that takes care of the bug. I installed the patch and this picture of beauty came out (see attachment).I don't know why I bother trying to put in a good word for wrist computers and deco diving. A few mins ago I was trying to download the data for the 3 dives I did during the weekend. The staged deco dive I was referring to in the quote above spits out gibberish instead of the actual dive profile (see attachment).
Looking forward to future computers that are not only air-integrated, but also blood-integrated. A strap-on venous ultrasound transducer continuously feeding back actual real-time blood microbubble data should really help the computer calculate remaining deco/non-deco times. :cool2:
Can I be your dive buddy? I want to perform a spinal tap on you to hook up that fancy new blood/tissue computer!
By that time we'll have specialized pseudo-inert gas breathing mixtures and enzymes to inject which will bind to the gas like hemoglobin binds to oxygen, allowing diving as deep as you like without any risk of DCS or any narcosis. I would recommend short selling any company developing fancy blood-monitoring computers like that since the enzyme/gas mixture will render the concept of dive computers completely moot.
