Triton Oxygen Mask For Diving by Jeabyun Yeon » Yanko Design
No mention of use at depth etc but what a cool idea Oxy poisoning etc might restrict it to shallow stuff

Yep, too good to be true.

It will never work since it would have to run many hundreds of gallons of water per minute at 100% efficiency to provide enough Oxygen to breath. Since water is made up of Hydrogen and Oxygen, where would the corresponding nitrogen come from? The air we breath is about 20% Oxygen and 79% Nitrogen. If it provided only Oxygen, then 100% partial pressure of oxygen is fatal if breathed deeper than 20 feet. So this can be a license to kill yourself if you could deal with the equivalent of a fire-hose in your face. I might also mention that the design would cause it to pull loose from your grip if you turned your head very fast or encountered a swift current. Drift diving Cozumel would be out of the question... Pipe dreams.....

Was a graphic design competition or similar, not an engineering competition. Is not real.

It is electrolysis, good idea, but a lot of pratical issue, range from power needed for electrolysis, O2 toxicity, handling of the H2 ...

 

[NightForce]

Not this again....

Thinkiing about it though -as Is yep useless, But what about combined with current rebreather technology?

How can so many people believe this could even be true? ADD, mass-stupidity???

This has already been discussed in another thread. This is only a studio project. Nothing still available.
The web site says clear :
Triton is a 2013 sadi product innovation studio project.
