AquaTic is a small-scale mechanical noise making device intended for the use of scuba divers and free divers to enhance their ability to communicate and locate each other under the surface

Problem Area





From the Users:
"Every scuba instructor should have one."


Product Expansion

Based on our research, we found that stealth and agility can be major contributing factors for many free divers, with an emphasis on camouflaged products. A version of the AquaTic to suit this need could be a possibly market expansion.

Serving a more "premium" audience, the AquaTic Pro could feature additional features to the base product, such as an all metallic body, polished on one side to act as a flash reflector, and a blinking LED to further assist location efforts.
