What do we do?
Maritime Research & Development, Photogrammetric 3D Survey, Neural Radiant Field Imaging, Hybrid Submersible Operations, Video Production, and even Dive Training!
Hey there! My name is Christopher, and Scuba.Tech Incorporated ("Scuba.Tech") represents a mission to bring technologist principles to diving and expeditionary environments.
Ultimately, our mission to create public good is defined by three continuing goals, known as the Trident:
Increase community stewardship with our marine ecosystem — by bringing accessible oceanographic media content to viewers, and by running educational events to practice hands-on volunteering & field studies.
Promote fields of oceanography & marine biology — by mentoring future technologists and advocates through operational experience and classroom curriculum.
Research new digital workflows to combine historiography with technology — by investigating new methods to survey shipwrecks and marine biomes in 3D & 4D augmented reality, virtual reality, and finally by releasing all products and techniques as public open-source.
Here, you'll find a repository for course notes, local resources and links, and of course a landing page for contacts and bookings.
