A connected technology to better control the diving practice
O’Dive includes a robust, compact vascular microbubble sensor (ultrasonic Doppler technology) connected to a server with specialised analysis capabilities.
After the dive, divers place the sensor for twenty seconds under their left then right clavicle; they enter their dive parameters on the O’Dive application and synchronise their data.
About an hour later, they can visualise a personal QI index which value, between 0 and 100%, reflects the quality of their decompression.
When the quality index (QI) is below 100%, divers can access detailed information specifying the part of their result attributable to the severity of the dive itself (parameters) and adjust accordingly.

Email: info@nautilus.uk

ZEN – Applying advanced technology for a new dimension in sports diving.
Perfect position
The wing has been carefully designed to achieve perfect positioning in water with great comfort at the surface.
Unique NX series harness
NX harness is easy to put on and take off without compromising stability, comfort and security.
High lift and minimized drag
The gas position in the wing ensures minimal drag and no unwanted dead air spaces.
Incredibly tough
Double shell Cordura wing is extremely durable, perfect for wreck diving.
Jump on any dive boat in the last 20 years and every BCD you see will be a slight variation on a theme. The NX ZEN is the result of our passion to break from that tradition, from what works, into what performs at a previously unheard of level.
Deconstructing traditional designs, bringing XDEEP’s technical diving experience and expertise, led to a step change in BCD design and application.
The NX ZEN is so named for a reason; that feeling of being ‘at one’ with the world that diving brings. Advances in materials technology, in diving design and our ability to apply modern engineering concepts created a dive system that delivered on our priorities.
A stable, comfortable and ergonomic BCD that is truly ZEN.
