| POLL: 2-way Heads Up Display. Would do you think?
A 2-way HUD is simply a standard HUD with an extra set of LEDs or lights facing away from the diver. The idea is that when I approach my buddy I would be able to assess their CCR O2 computers without asking if they are ok every time.
The idea came about during a dive where my buddy was motionless at the stern of wreck in 60ft of water. I became concerned because he was not attentive or responding to my signals. I swam over to him to assess the situation and discovered that he was looking at fish swimming inside the hull. After my heart returned to normal operation I thought that it would be nice if I was able to see get a sense of his condition more rapidly.
Of course this situation was just two new CCR divers learning each others style, dive personality and techniques but the idea seemed valid regardless.
What do you think about a 2-way HUD system?
