Based in the province of L & # 39; Aquila iSpace2o , the start-up that started the production of its half straddling two apparently irreconcilable sectors, the hydrofoils and the submarines . And it could only be electric, the DeepSeaker DS1 , to potentially allow anyone (a simple piloting course with a certificate is enough) to savor the charm of the underwater world in full comfort and respect for the environment, a trend, the latter, more and more; current.

According to the young reality. there is no other boat in the world capable of gliding over the water at 23 knots (43 km/h) and at the same time diving up to 50 meters to explore the wonders of the sea. The hull is driven by two DeepSpeed ​​by Sealence jets which, being electric, guarantee silence and no vibration; autonomy is not note, but the company is working on a hydrogen version of the DeepSeaker DS1 that will increment & agrave; the distance.

OXYGEN FOR OCCUPANTS PRESSOCH? UNLIMITED

Interesting elements of the project. First of all, security: there are a carbon fiber cockpit decoupled from the rest of the submarine, which has a steel skeleton covered with a thermoplastic body, so to ensure maximum protection to the occupants in the event of a collision, a perimeter airbag that fills with air to quickly bring the DS1 to the surface in an emergency, an onboard system capable of constantly monitor the main aspects for survival of the occupants (CO2 and oxygen levels, air quality, etc.).

Furthermore, again with regard to safety, the designers emphasize the advantages of a system that is practically all about; unreleased in partnership with Like-A-Fish. The DeepSeaker DS1 & egrave; equipped with a patented system for oxygen generation to be introduced on board starting from sea water: & quot; this allows it to remain immersed for a prolonged time, […] unlike other submarines that from time to time have to re-emerge to fill up with oxygen & quot ;.

LOTS OF TECHNOLOGY ON BOARD navigation system that iSpace2o has studied under the banner of intelligence and comfort: the driver sets the destination by delegating to the vehicle the management of the pace that ensures the outward and return journey with the energy available in the batteries. Speaking of comfort, the dashboard is; digital and there are connectors for iPad so & igrave; to view the footage of the Go Pro on board and of the hydrophones & quot; for listening to marine mammals & quot ;.

The production is; was launched thanks to the Smart & amp; Start of Invitalia . The first ten DeepSeaker DS1 produced are already; been optioned by & quot; one of the most & ugrave; large international shipping groups & quot ;, which will use them & agrave; as a means of entertainment for the passengers of their cruise ships but the DS1 & egrave; a vehicle so compact that it can be transported on a boat trailer or housed in the garage of a yacht. The price of a specimen is not; still been communicated.
