FAQ

The project seems very adapted to a very calm sea; quid of the possibilities of observations if the sea stirs a little bit harder; you have no more then the possibility of escaping the excitement of surface!Ballcocks are studied to assure a maximal stability and the submarine nacelle acts as a sea anchor and stabilizes the boat. Bides, from a certain excitement of the sea, nobody of these device is not enough to assure a comfort being enough for the users. The computing simulations give a limit to a superior swell in 30 cm. From this moment, it is advisable simply either to thread its palms and its diving equipment, or to raise in position surface and to use Platypus as a boat which has an excellent seaworthiness even by relatively sea strong.Is there a safety device allowing to move if there is a failure of batteries (pedal boat or other one) ?Yes, with 2 types: integrated into the BMS system of batteries and engine management, a GPS (GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM) will stop Platypus since we approach the point of no return, while preserving an important safety margin. Finally, in case of breakdown for failure, the GPS evoked previously allows to indicate a problem. The operator and the developer can then come to repair spot Platypus.Is there a device stabilizing the machine and allowing possibly the passenger to leave the platypus temporarily and to continue only snorkeling a dive on some meters to find the sensation of a total dumping that only the free dive gets? In this way, the divers could communicate and share their emotions offers by the diving.Platypus is a boat. He can be moored or simply anchored. During this time one or several users can leave swimming, making of the snorkeling or the dive. To note that, it does not see itself on the video, Platypus will be marketed optional with complete masks having a radio so that the users can communicate between them.It would also allow the users to change their places in the course of walk because it seems to me that the vision of the one who is behind is very degraded with regard to that front. It brings me another question: who pilots? the front one or the back one?The front one pilots the platypus. The 2 places are exchangeable easily. The person sat behind sees on sides freely and in a general way has a similar visibility even superior to the back passenger of a motorcycle: the visibility is good even of behind.
