i must compose posted:Motion controls A Wiimote control scheme sounds extremely ill-considered for controlling the orientation of your immediate environment since just small initial tilt can send the tincan reeling magnifying the runaway effect quickly turning the submersible into unstoppable Mr. Bones' wild ride.

Impossibly Perfect Sphere posted:well you shoulda seen the beta controller:  I heard the enterpreneurs had upgraded to this last minute as the final control scheme for their welded tubmarine. The only caveat remaining is keeping a real regular beat the entire time descending.

holefoods posted:even if it did work, how much advance warning could it feasibly give? Aren't these alarms just meant to give enough of a warning in larger vessels for one last desperate scramble to try and seal off the ruptured compartments with bulkhead hatches, so that there's enough unflooded breathing space while you wait for the rescue? What good are they when you're occupying the only space between two welded bathtubs with no way to escape?

Everett False posted:I've been saying the same thing!! Everyone keeps being all, "guys the controller isn't the issue, lots of things use controllers" but my problem is with that specific controller, which sucked so bad for playing video games that I bought a new one within months. Maybe I'm missing something and they're using a bluetooth version that sucks less, but mine used a USB dongle and lost connection every time I accidentally sat in a way that put my leg between the controller and the computer. So what you're saying is that Madcatz sabotaged the tubmersible to win back market shares from Logitech?

WAR CRIME GIGOLO posted:Issuing a correction to my last post you do not in fact have to hand it to Logitech My wireless mouse from Logitech has irreversibly stopped working after they made me update the dongle, so they sure know their peripherals. Speaking of which when that main inventor at Oceanghast was showing off the interior of his doomed diving bell in the video, the only thruster control interface I could see were the two tablets on swivels, which I assume were running some sort of generic-brand android and a homebrew app for piloting the thing with a BT 3.0 paired gaming joystick. And just the thought of this would make me sprint away from their underwater iron maiden as fast as possible.

Man Amazon used to sell these blue sturdy-looking 55 gallon drums of lube which would have been perfect for my startup deep lake touring agency.

Sometimes you have crab on the menu, other times the crab gets to have you on his. It's a circle of life where everything's connected, Simba.

ethanol posted:I agree for the most part but I think just in my gut I would suggest a sea going vessel waterproof its controls I wonder if they used marine batteries or went with hooking up conventional car batteries in an array on which to sit on to power the craft's props, as nobody seems to classify this homemade diving apparatus as anything which falls under most of sea vehicle regulations.

For every 10 meters of saltwater depth, multiple sites say that pressure increases linearly by another atmosphere. So if the ill-fated explorers were still descending at a depth of about half a kilometer, then the pressure surrounding them would've been 50 atmospheres (Titanic settled at the edge of the Abyssal zone at 400 atmos) when something in Titan's hull began to fail. The following catastrophic pressure equalization took the craft's internal sea-level atmo to the outdoor 50 in a near instant, which is a hell of a lot of force to exert on the human body. Even a much smaller 9 atmo change, referring to this oil rig decompression article, has all the force to cube a guy through a half a meter compartment hole in a flash.
