Divers: What’s your experience with underwater communication systems? Insights needed for new wireless tech

I’m part of a group of students and researchers developing a wireless, interference-free voice communication system for divers. Our project integrates advanced hydroacoustic technologies, noise-canceling algorithms, and neural networks to enhance the clarity and reliability of underwater communication.

We’re in the process of gathering feedback from divers to better shape the device. Here are a few questions I’m hoping to get insights on. It would be really helpful to us if you could share your thoughts on these:
  1. What types of underwater communication systems do you currently use? (e.g., full-face masks with built-in comms, hardwired systems, etc.)

  2. How long have you been using these systems, and how do you find them in terms of usability? What are their main strengths and weaknesses in your experience?

  3. If a wireless communication device eliminated the need for full-face masks or hardwired systems, would you consider using it?

  4. Would this be an improvement for you? What specific tasks do you rely on underwater communication for? (e.g., safety coordination, technical work, etc.)

  5. What challenges have you faced using current underwater communication systems?

  6. In your opinion, what is the optimal range (depth and distance) for effective wireless underwater communication?

  7. How often do you perform technical dives without hardwired communication systems?
Hoping to hear from you soon:)
