Introducing the Oceans S1 Supersonic
Oceans aims to revolutionize dive computers with the S1 Supersonic.
Their computer has one feature in particular that they believe sets it apart from others – buddy communication.
The Oceans S1 Supersonic dive computer uses soundless ultrasonic waves to allow divers to summon their buddies, dive master or instructor. When activated, the S1 sends a ping message to each paired dive computer, and shows a notification on the display with the name of the diver needing attention.
Buddy communication
- Using soundless ultrasonic waves, the S1 allows you to summon your buddy, dive master or instructor with just a tap of a button.
- Ping – the S1 sends a ping message to each paired dive computer, showing a notification on the display with the name of the diver looking for attention. Now, you will never again miss your buddy’s shark spottings.
- Safety – in the same way, the S1 will act as virtual lifeline to your buddy, in cases when you need immediate attention.
All-wireless design
- The Oceans S1 Supersonic has an all-wireless design, no cables needed.
- Syncing – the S1 connects via Bluetooth to the Oceans app to automatically import dives into your digital logbook. In the app, you can add location, observations, gear and photos, and share it with the global community.
- Charging – when your battery is running low, the S1 charges wirelessly using any Qi standard charger.
Hi-tech features
The S1 comes loaded with tech that will make a diver’s life easier underwater.
- Compass – Navigate like a pro with the built-in digital 3-axis compass and gyro.
- Haptic feedback – No more annoying your buddies and wildlife with constant beeping, the silent haptic feedback notifies you with vibrations when needed.
- Hi-res color – The S1 features a retina class LED color display for a clearer view of your diving adventures.
Oceans is ready to go into final design and production. The last step is to put the device into production and finish software development for integration into the Oceans app, and to reach that goal, Oceans has launched a Kickstarter campaign.

Oyster Diving have recently been given exclusive access to offer scuba diving courses and fun dives at Mercers Lake, a beautiful lake near M25/Gatwick in the UK.
Oyster have just launched their own dive boat ‘The Blue Pear’ to explore various parts of the lake. Divers can glide around the underwater woodland, see lots of fish and decent visibility. Out of the water divers set up in the purpose built kitting up area, unwind in a warm shower, and off-gas in the café & licensed bar.
To celebrate the start of the summer season, AquaSports and Oyster Diving have teamed up to host a Star Wars-themed open day on the 4th May.
Guests will be able to enjoy discounted tasters of various watersports including Stand Up Paddleboarding (SUP), Canoeing and Sailing. Oyster Diving will be joined by Apeks and possibly other dive manufacturers to display their latest products. Demo gear will be available for qualified divers and Oyster’s sales support team will be on hand for customers with any questions.
Divers wishing to get in the water will need to book in via Oyster Diving’s website where you can also choose to hire any equipment. Non-divers and well behaved dogs are very welcome!
As well as the watersports there will also be music, food and a licensed bar. The fun starts at 10am and finishes around 4.30pm.
Please come along, wear your finest Stormtrooper or Princess Leia outfit and enjoy the fun!
