[PSUBS-MAILIST] 3D dive recording, kickstarter

[J. Foulkes via Personal_Submersibles]

  Hello everyone,

OEngineering was at CES this year with this product and I had several
lengthy discussions with them about their system.  So, first I would like
to point out that the real focus of this system is for citizen science
applications (inexpensive) not for extended dive precision mapping.  If
this is your application, you would be much better served using a control
laptop with external IMU and GNSS devices as the IMU on this product
doesn't have the best freerunning accuracy.  Secondly, it seemed that what
they were really pushing as the technology you are paying for is the app
interface.  It was unclear from talking with them what interface would be
available (API) for downloading raw data on points of interest  and
continuous tracking outside of this interface.  Also, one thing to note is
that if you were using this in your sub for datalogging (it requires manual
button pressing for POI logging) you would need a GNSS repeater with a
bulkhead pass through.

Regards,
James Foulkes
