The GPS signal doesn’t penetrate deeper than a few millimeters below the water surface. It’s useless for divers.
Project Ariadna is based on a hybrid method: read the GPS position on the surface, then live-track the location of the diver using mathematical algorithms.
The system reads data from 11 independent sensors 400 times every second. Then it processes the input through a sophisticated set of algorithms to precisely calculate the movements of the diver.
As a result, the diver gets the exact position on the map, live, at any second of the dive. Precisely and without any external transmitters.
The Ariadna navigation device will be as simple as any dive computer and effortless to use even in a stressful or unexpected situation. So what the diver sees on Ariadna’s large screen is simple: go straight on, turn left, turn right, you are here. The next point of interest is 10 meters ahead.
Ariadna will make you see, even when you can’t see anything.
