Triton, World’s First Artificial Gills Re-breather

The world’s first ‘artificial gills’ technology for breathing & swimming underwater.

Welcome to the future of underwater breathing

Triton. A state-of-the-art oxygen respirator, that allows you to breathe underwater by utilizing ourartificial gills technology. Swim among tropical fish, marvel at exotic coral and experience the serenebeauty of marine life without having to come up for air. Welcome to Triton.

With Triton theres no heavy equipment, complicated safety procedures or training. It’s easy to use, andno longer than a snorkel. Gently bite into the mouthpiece, breathe normally, and enjoy a sense ofunderwater freedom unavailable until now. Just imagine exploring gin-clear waters, alongside tropicalfish, without bulky equipment or having to surface for air.

“swimmers would just have to bite down on a plastic mouthpiece. Triton consists of two arms, which branch out to the sides of the scuba mask, and are designed to function as gills.” –Industrytap

“the Triton Scuba Mask could very well revolutionize how we handle undersea exploration” –Articlecats

“instead of lugging around heavy scuba, swimmers will now only have to bite down into a plastic piece to get their much needed oxygen.” –Techntrend

“This is an interesting concept. In the future when this product is in the market, we can foresee that there will be a lot of changes need to be done in the current diving course syllabus.” –Idivher

A new world of freedom

We have a passion for exploring marine life. And we enjoy snorkeling. Its fun, but limited. With Tritonyoull be able to explore with a new sense of freedom.

A fully-charged battery enables to 45 minutes ofunderwater pleasure. And with amaximum depth 15 feet, youll swim among marine life, rather thanmerely looking down on it. Triton empowers you with the ability to see and feel the vivid, sub-aquatic world close up.

The following video is our latest Triton’s test!

Triton employs cutting-edge technology to produce artificial gills. TheMicroporous Hollow Fiber makesbreathing underwater possible.

The holes of the threads are smaller than water molecules, they keepwater out and let oxygen in. The micro compressor then extracts and stores the oxygen allowing youto breathe naturally and revel in your underwater freedom.

We are using a very powerful modified micro compressor, it compresses oxygen and stores the extracted oxygen in a storage tank.The micro compressor operates through a powerful modified lithium-ion battery.

The positive media coverage weve received has made us so happy.

Technical specifications

General

  • Total length 29 Cm / 11.5 inches
  • Total width 12 Cm / 4.5 inches

Core Functionality

  • The artificial gills are made out ofMicroporous Hollow Fiber. This is thepioneering technology that keeps watermolecules out, and lets oxygen in.

  • Triton is powered by a modified lithium-ion battery that allows you to swimunderwater for 45 minutes.

  • Our modified micro compressor canextract enough oxygen for a human tocomfortably breathe underwater.

Some fun time with Triton on the beach and we had time for a photo session

Triton is for everyone thatloves snorkeling and exploring the ocean.This is definitely a new way too swim under water, it took us almost two years to develop Triton and today we have done it.

Our story

I met Saeed early 2014 on a website for people who a share passion for design and technology. Id justdesigned and started to develop Triton. It was born out of the ambition to improve the snorkelingexperience. I wanted to design a product that would allow me to explore underwater, not just inchesunder the surface, as with a snorkel.

I realized I needed help to make my dream a reality. Thankfully, help came in the form of Saeed! He toois a keen snorkeler, and loved my idea. He was able to help turn the prototype into a functioning product.

Eight months on, we conducted our first successful test. This happened to be on Saeeds birthday. Surelya good sign! Triton worked, but not as well as we wanted. There were still problems to overcome. Dueto underwater pressure, the lithium-ion battery and micro compressor were not performing asefficiently as we wanted.

We tried other batteries and compressors, but to no avail. We needed to makeour own modifications with the perfect components. After months of sweat, endeavor (and buckets ofcoffee!) we made it. Thorough testing proved what we had hoped. Our dream had been realized.

In December 2015 we launched our Facebook page, Triton gills. Weve been overwhelmed by thepositive media coverage and, more importantly, the kind comments and huge interest on social media.

Today we are on Indiegogo, looking for backers to help get Triton onto the market. We believe Triton isthe future of snorkeling and scuba diving. Were proud of our product, and want everyone to have theopportunity to enjoy it. Please join us in making Triton available to all.

Thank you all for reading our story and always supporting us on our journey.

Project timeline

The following is our project timeline. We will keep you updated on our status and informing you with the latest news here on our Indiegogo campaign.

Until now, Triton has been entirely self-funded. Now were asking for support from you, the backers, tostart manufacturing Triton.

The funding will be utilized for engineering and product manufacturing. We have found the perfectmanufacturer, who has great marine product experience, to produce Triton to the exacting standards we demand.

Career opportunity:

We are looking for a technician in marine technology that can start working with us in fall 2016, please if you feel like you are the right person for the job or if you know anybody that is perfect for this job let us know.
Send a email about yourself and your qualifications and we will get back to you.
Send the application to: info@tritongills.com

Triton: Available in 4 colors

Pick your Triton in Blue, Orange, Green, Gray when you order.

What’s next?

We have created a working prototype, the next step is:

  • Finalize the engineering
  • Oversee production
  • Create and finalize the Triton case
  • Follow up our patents
  • Conduct final tests before we start manufacturing

Thank you for your time. We really hope you like our presentation and our rewards. We wish you a great2016 :)
