New Account and Exciting New Product

Now, if we think about the industry, there will be tens of thousands of divers who would love a mask that can do fish identification. They wouldn't spend 1000 on a mask though. They want it for free.

@RheoDive - just offering some individual thoughts with a constructive spirit intended.

Built-in GPS adds an essential safety layer by helping surface teams track diver location in real time.

I’d make that feature part of your premium model. Your pioneer efforts to integrate an UW GPS capability into a dive mask will likely put the cost to customer somewhere in the upper stratosphere and your pool of purchasers is likely to be pretty small.

What I think could be the base model mask is definitely interesting. However, as a technical diver who likes to and must check data with less forgiveness than recreational dives, I wouldn’t feel compelled to rush out to get one of these. In a trimmed out dive position, my data isn’t far away on my forearm and the mask, although convenient, doesn’t seem to offer me a dynamic leap forward in capability. In fact, it adds complexity where simplicity in equipment to endure multi-hour exploration dives without complications is more favorable, IMO.

I think this mask will appeal to folks who generally like technology across all facets of their daily life rather than it will appeal to a category of divers.

Best of luck and glad you got to enjoy Vicenza.

Thank you NC and I should certainly clarify. The GPS will work on the surface but certainly not work while underwater.

Thank you for the feedback! Were you in Vicenza also? I was there with 2/503d from 2004-2008. Great unit and loved the area!
