Dr. Richard Pyle

Dr. Richard Pyle: Back to the Future in Underwater Exploration: An Old Technology Comes of Age

Dr. Pyle came to the Georgia Aquarium to speak with us about a new rebreather he and Poseidon are developing. Currently, rebreathers are primarily used by technical divers. However, the rebreather that Dr. Pyle presented was created for recreational diving as it is "user friendly". In other words, non-technical divers with less expertise of rebreathers can use the same technology that technical divers have been using in the past.
