Description

Emergingdx Inc in collaboration with academic and industry partners will design and develop a novel rebreather. The new design will (i) provide oxygen and/or eliminate CO2 at a rate to match metabolic rates of an active diver in missions lasting up to 10 hours (ii) be modular so that it can be easily disassembled, cleaned, disinfected, and dried, (iii) have similar or smaller formfactor than current rebreather components, (iv) eliminate CO2 (not as a gas form into the water) through chemical conversion instead of storing scrubbed CO2 within the rebreather unit.
