Bump... I was really hoping this would fly ... Any update?

I saw a mock up of something very cool today at DEMA. More on it tomorrow. I have got to hit the hay!

 

[AfterDark]

yeah, get back to us on that!

 

[The Chairman]

It' called Navimate and works off of a type of SONAR beacon.
It gives the location of the beacon as well other divers in the water.

Sounds very similar to another device, I think shown at the last DEMA show

 

[AfterDark]

How deep can it go? What's the range? How many divers can it track?

 

[Buoyant1]

Can you select a starting coordinate, so you can end there? (i.e. the down line from a boat on a reef dive) Is your "path" downloadable? (so you can overlay it on a map to see where you went?)

Sounds cool!

This would be awesome for us spear fisherman to help find the mark if we drop in the sand. Also for getting back to the boat.
