I just don't log dives

Got mentioned during one of my tech classes. Concept is really cool. Get out measure your bubbles adjust gas and dive plan accordingly for less bubbles.

Not sure I trust the technology yet. But picture a few years when we connect this to our Shearwater while diving and it says ok by your actual bubbles time to ascend to next stop or surface.

Or is it just a bunch of hocus-pocus.
 
Concept is really cool, but if believing everything advertised as true it's difficult to get too excited about it until the measurements don't need to be "combined with a server that analyses your personal measurements and your diving data..."
Given constant technology improvements hopefully the concept can be implemented real time and end user interests are taken into account (similar to the divergence of software which lets boaters make their own custom charts on their own as opposed to collecting data to a private company's server for free in order to have useful information while the information remains proprietary instead of open source..).
 
Last I read there was not a direct relationship between bubbles detected by ultrasound and actual symptoms. So not sure if you can get there from here given the current state of our understanding of deco and DCS.
