Simple is better.
Typically you have two displays, your primary and your secondary, both independent/redundant. The HUD, IMO, is to alert you to potential problems, i.e,. if the ppO2 deviates from the setpoint it should alert you to this deviation and your immediate action/reaction should be to check your displays and act accordingly.
I believe that a HUD that gives too much information (lots of flashing and different colored lights) can make it less effective as your mind (eyes) tend to block out information it is not using, versus static green flashing (ppO2 at setpoint) followed by noticeable red flashing (ppO2 not at setpoint) should something be wrong - you will certainly notice this and check your displays immediately. I guess what I'm basically saying is that I agree with Gill :grin:
I'm really getting sold on the Laguna Research system but I'm still learning more about it. First impressions are that it looks very solid and well tested. Heard testimonials from divers who rely heavily on this system and it seems very robust. And almost everything is field replaceable - something that is required for expedition style diving were parts are not readily available. |
