[PSUBS-MAILIST] 3D dive recording, kickstarter

[Alan via Personal_Submersibles]

Hello Oystein,
I have sent a price enquiry for the modem & transducer.
I had seen somewhere an indicative price of around $1000 for the modem.
These modems transmit on several band widths simultaneously to gain more
Reliability & have a range of 3k.
I have seen the blue robotics product. They are very helpful & would probably
Taylor anything to your needs.

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.
