I want one of these. Wired published an article in January about a rigid diving suit built by Nuytco Research, called the EXOSUIT. The inside of the suit is maintained at surface atmospheric pressure, obviating the need for lengthy decompressions after working at depth. The suit is incredibly flexible, which sets it apart from many previous efforts to build such suits. The visual field is excellent, and if you’re not sold on the thing already, it has thrusters… So it’s like an underwater jetpack.
