This lightweight scuba diving system lets you dive without the use of heavy tanks. The Nomad, which is developed by blU3, lets you explore shallow waters without the need to keep rising for air.

The device works by floating on the surface of the water. A compressor takes fresh air and delivers it to the diver, who is attached to a 40ft air hose. Nomad allows users to dive up to 35ft and charges via USB, providing over 60 minutes of usage from a single charge.

Experienced and novice divers can use the system, but it is advised to receive proper training before taking part in any diving activities.

Nomad is crowdfunding on Kickstarter and will cost around £719 with a ship date set for December 2018.
