Transform your phone into an all-in-one Dive computer, Underwater camera, and Photo-synced log book.

Story

 

 

 

Buying a diving computer, compass, and camera separately for your dive can get pricey over time and not to mention they are very bulky and can weigh you down while diving. At DIVEROID, we thought of bringing the convenience of having a smartphone always on hand, with the technology of monitoring your dive. Our product includes a dive computer, compass, and logbook all in the palm of your hand.

 

 

 

A Diving computer is an essential piece of safety equipment, especially for your first dive. It prevents accidents by measuring the depth, dive duration, and the ascending speed. DIVEROID is the only existing dive computer with an all-in-one solution.

Our colorful and high-contrast app displaces all the necessary diving information you need such as depth, dive time, ascending time, and temperature at a glance.

 

 

DIVEROID’s safety alerts will notify you at any time during your dive if you have reached your depth stop, or are ascending too fast. In the case of an emergency, our app will let you know what to do at the current depth you are at to stay safe.

DIVEROID alerts let you know you have reached your safety stop.

An alert will pop up when it is time to stop.

Additional DIVEROID features include:

  • Tilt Compensated 3D Compass
  • Your Real-time Diving Profile

 

You already have a high-quality functioning camera in your hands…your smartphone! Capture endless photos and videos of your dive which can be shared later on via link through the DIVEROID App.

 

 

The DIVEROID housing device protects your phone underwater while fully allowing you to use your phone with the simple button operations on the device.

*Disclaimer: Some features such as the ultra-wide-angle, zoom, selfie and 4k video quality only works on supported smartphones*

 

The deeper you dive, the less light you will see thus the less color is reflected. That’s why most of underwater pictures and videos are blue or green. To fix this, you may have to use a red lens filter on your camera. We make this possible with our algorithm. It makes the real-time color correction function restore your pictures automatically to the original color.

 

* Notice: In order to watch this video in optimal quality, we recommend using Chrome browser which supports 4K resolution. Other browsers such as Safari may not support 4K resolution for Youtube videos.

The video was taken with an iPhone8(Even in iPhone8!) in 4K mode. Don’t forget to select 4K as a quality option!

 

Are you tired of keeping track of your dive log by pencil and paper? DIVEROID keeps track of your entire dive, from start to finish at a glance. The app auto-syncs the photos and videos taken on your dive for you to, later on, look back on. You can view the specific photo taken at each depth of your dive.

 

 

 

 

Customize with stickers your diving story and share your dive with your friends, family, and others via SNS, Text or email.

 

DIVEROID  is compatible with almost every major smartphone in the market today.

DIVEROID has an inner housing adjustment so you can fit your smartphone perfectly in the device. The universal buttons on the outside are for easy use and accessibility of your phone during your dive.

 

[Important NOTICE]

Due to software limitations, we’ve found that certain smartphones are incompatible, particularly brands like Huawei, Oppo, and Xiaomi

 

 

 

 

We go through a strict water pressure chamber, closed water test and an open water test procedure with our devices to ensure that the best performance and resistance are met.

 

 

 

Only the best of the best materials are used to make DIVEROID to ensure you the best, and safest diving experience every time.

 

 

DIVEROID has five ‘Heat sink™’ drains which release the heat so it prevents fogging inside the housing.

 

 

 

DIVEROID had a double O-ring structure built in the housing with a 60M/200ft waterproof functionality.

 

 

 

We make DIVEROID devices with only the top-tier materials like Gorilla Glass™, for strength and scratch resistance, and Polycarbonate with Glass fiber for high strength and durability.

 

 

DIVEROID supports free diving mode with features including depth alarm, stopwatch for static apnea, and even convenient boat calling straight from the app.

 

 

DIVEROID has all the information freedivers need, including depth, dive time, water temperature, and surface time reach.

 

Control your dive with depth alarm features that can be set for up to 6 different depths. These settings inform you of the current depth of the water you are in.

 

 

 

 

Need to call a boat to pick up you? With DIVEROID, you can now call a boat all through the app with DIVEROID’s boat calling function. A text message will be sent with your exact location in google maps via url and make the call to the boat.

 

Train your body to stay underwater longer. You can record for how long you can hold your breath and challenge to your limits.

 

 

Your freediving logs are recorded automatically in the App with photo synced to depth.

Risks and challenges

Producing a hardware product is never easy. Our previous experience in manufacturing android smartphone housing, iPhone smartphone housing, modular dive computer makes us better prepared for the unforeseen challenges we may encounter during the tooling, manufacturing, injection, testing, and certification processes. This means we already have pre-established relationships to ensure consistent quality and testing processes. Also we already successfully have done pre-production in 500 units which are to inspect any unexpected challenges. Despite the familiarity with our supply partners, there is still a risk in successfully complete the product. In addition to the challenges that present themselves with manufacturing, we will need to continue testing the products to ensure the best performance. Our target earliest shipping dates are within a week after finishing up the campaign. To run the shipping, we will do everything we can do.
