PUC — Personal Underwater Communication

ABOUT THE PROJECT
As a passionate diver and interaction designer, I want to make diving a safer experience. PUC (Personal Underwater Communicator) is a patented innovation that enables divers to communicate underwater—enhancing safety, coordination, and exploration. Unlike traditional methods such as hand signals or prearranged light cues, PUC provides a reliable digital solution that empowers divers to share information quickly and intuitively in challenging underwater environments.
Role & Scope: Concept Development, Interaction Design, Patent Registration
Disciplines: Industrial Design, Human Factors, Communication Systems, UX/UI, Interaction Design, HMI
Partners: Professional Divers, Engineers, Marine experts, and Research Institutions
