Camera
- Record Media Files in RAW and Compressed Formats – The Oceanic+ iPhone water housing offers professionals the ability to capture media files in both RAW and compressed formats, ensuring optimal evaluation and control of images.
- White Point Correction for Depth-Adaptive Adjustments – The Oceanic+ iPhone diving case incorporates white point correction technology, which automatically adjusts based on the depth of the dive. This innovative feature enhances image accuracy by accounting for the varying colour temperature and light conditions experienced underwater.
- Safety Warnings: Safety warnings are customizable and displayed as visible and/or haptic notifications to the user during the dive for decompression stops, safety stops, ascent rates, and more.
- Safety Stop: A safety precaution after each dive is to pause for 3 minutes at 15 feet (5 meters) prior to the final ascent. This allows for the diver to release any residual nitrogen still in the body. Note the safety stop time could be longer depending on a variety of factors, including no decompression time and ascent rate.
- Time To Surface: Displays the estimated time to reach the surface without exceeding the ascent speed of 32 ft per minute plus any decompression stop time if the diver has entered into decompression dive plus a safety stop of 3 minutes.
- Decompression Stops: Once a diver has exceeded the no decompression limit, mandatory decompression stops will be activated and will vary based on the depth and time spent at a particular depth. We recommend even with advanced training to always stay within your no-decompression limits. Your variometer will indicate the decompression ceiling along with a decompression time and countdown timer.
- Nitrox: Nitrox refers to any air (nitrogen/oxygen) mixture with more than 21% oxygen.
- Nitrox Ready up to 40%: This means this product is suitable for Nitrox gas mixes up to 40% oxygen.
- PPO2: Stands for the partial pressure of oxygen which is affected by your current depth or atmospheric pressure. It is important to note when changing the oxygen percentage in settings for Nitrox mixes, the MOD calculation appears which is the maximum allowable depth for the selected gas.
- Max Depth: Maximum depth reached during your current dive will be displayed.
- CNS + PPO2: CNS is an oxygen clock displayed in number of minutes remaining based on your PPO2 levels while PPO2 is partial pressure of oxygen at that point during the dive. Increases in PPO2 cause the CNS exposure time to decrease rapidly.
- Pre-dive Menu: This is a summary of your pre-dive settings which include your gas mixture (ex. Air 21%), maximum planned depth/time, altitude, and more. It is launched from the menu, the action button, or auto-launch. Pre-dive allows you to check the selected settings prior to the dive, and even update them through the crown and action button in shallow water.
- Compass: 3D Tilt-Compensated Compass can be accessed during the dive, including setting a dive heading.
- GPS Location: Adding to its unmatched convenience, the Oceanic+ logbook automatically tracks your start and end point through GPS and will autosave the session for future reference. No more forgetting to manually record each dive in your logbook, it’s done automatically.
- Total Dive Time: This is the total expected time underwater for your next dive
- Max Depth: This is the maximum planned depth for your next dive
- Gas Mix: The Oceanic+ app has the ability to manage multiple tanks during the same dive. Make sure you have the appropriate level of training for this type of activity.
- Conservatism: This option changes the conservatism level of your decompression algorithm. These are factors that could increase the possibility of decompression sickness. It is recommended that you choose the option based on your personal diving experience. If you are unsure, we recommend using the default or most conservative setting.
- Gradient Factors: The Oceanic+ app employs the unmodified Bühlmann ZHL-16C algorithm with gradient factors. Gradient factors are used to lower the maximum tolerated supersaturation in the tissues with respect to Bühlmann’s original values. This results in less nitrogen in the body at the end of the dive, which under normal circumstances makes the dive more conservative. Gradient factors are expressed in pairs: the first value, also called GF low, represents the percentage of the original Bühlmann value that defines the beginning of the final ascent (relevant only in decompression dives); the second value, also called GF high, represents the percentage of the original Bühlmann value that defines the residual nitrogen at the surface at the end of a dive.
- Altitude (Auto): The Oceanic+ app can be adjusted for diving at different altitudes. This setting automatically adjusts the decompression calculation according to the given altitude range. WARNING: Traveling to a higher elevation can temporarily cause a change in the equilibrium of dissolved nitrogen in the body. It is recommended that you acclimatize to the new altitude before diving.
- Surface Intervals: This is the time on the surface between dives.
- No Fly Time: No fly displays the time until flying is safe. The countdown starts immediately after a dive is made for 24 hours. No fly time is important prior to travel to ensure any residual nitrogen is removed from the diver. After each dive, the no-fly time will be calculated based on DAN no-fly time.
- Logbook: In addition to seeing the classic dive profile of your depth and time, you can activate an overlaid graph with temperature information, ascent rates, and no-deco time throughout the entire dive profile. Each dive log features the ability to add dive visibility, surface conditions, and currents.
- Gear Locker: In addition, the logbook features a gear locker that allows you to keep track of gear used, as well as how long it has been in service and scheduled service dates.
- Share Your Dive: Lastly, through the social component, connect with dive buddies, share logs with friends, rate your favourite dive spot, and save photos for each dive, including the GPS location tag.
- Surface Mode: After surfacing, Oceanic+ immediately shows your last dive profile, including depth, time, and other important information. This surface mode also shows the surface time, and the recommended no-fly time, along with the estimated maximum allowed elevation. After the no-fly time has elapsed, the surface platter disappears, and all dive data is stored in the logbook.
- Lifetime Stats: total number of dives; total time diving
- Seasonal Stats: Number of dives, time diving, max depth… weekly, monthly, and annually
- Stats By Activity: Dive, Snorkeling

Record Media Files in RAW and Compressed Formats
The Oceanic+ Dive Housing offers professionals the ability to capture media files in both RAW and compressed formats, ensuring optimal evaluation and control of images. This feature caters to the needs of experienced divers who require high-quality, unprocessed files for post-dive analysis and editing. By recording in RAW format, divers can retain all the original data captured by the camera sensor, enabling them to make precise adjustments and enhancements during the post-processing stage. Compressed formats, on the other hand, provide a convenient option for divers who prefer smaller file sizes without compromising overall image quality. With Oceanic+ Dive Housing, divers have the flexibility to choose between these formats, empowering them to achieve their desired visual outcomes.
The Oceanic+ Dive Housing incorporates white point correction technology, which automatically adjusts based on the depth of the dive. This innovative feature enhances image accuracy by accounting for the varying colour temperature and light conditions experienced underwater. The Oceanic+ Dive Housing offers multiple presets that cater to different diving depths, ensuring accurate colour representation throughout the dive. By applying depth-dependent white point correction, divers can achieve optimal image recording to facilitate post-dive correction algorithms. This capability results in improved image quality and colour fidelity, enabling divers to capture and preserve the true essence of their underwater experiences.
