Field notes

The homepage lists six LIVE 3D models spanning sidemount and back-mounted rebreathers, with descriptions of their scrubbers, sensors, valves and bailout arrangements. Controls and failure scenarios vary by model; examples include adjusting depth and workload or observing a stuck-solenoid case. A separate iOS cave-survey app is described as using a guideline wheel and phone sensors to log turns and headings, with Therion or CSV export. The page does not establish simulator validation or suitability for real dive training.
