Halcyon Symbios Handset, HUD & Tank Pod

All in One: The Halcyon Symbios System

The Halcyon Symbios HANDSET, HUD, and Tank POD package offers a comprehensive solution for an innovative, future-proof echo system designed for discerning divers.

Able to accommodate up to 9 transmitters and support 5 OC/CCR gases, the Handset and HUD (Head-Up Display) computers share the same key features but in a different form factor. They can be used together or individually, with the HUD providing a significant hands-free advantage for rebreather divers, photographers, videographers, SAR divers, and Special Forces.

Together with the Symbios Handset, the HUD and handset form the core of Halcyon’s Symbios Technology, an ecosystem designed to enhance your diving experience with advanced features and prepare you for today’s adventures and tomorrow’s challenges.

Halcyon Symbios Tank Pod

The Halcyon Symbios Tank Pod works in conjunction with the Symbios Handset and Symbios HUD systems, transmitting gas pressure and diver orientation (trim position).

The Halcyon Symbios Tank Pod can be attached directly to a first stage or mounted on a short HP hose with a swivel for greater flexibility.

The tank pod uses a high-resolution digital tank pressure sensor, a 3-axis accelerometer to measure the position of the diver (tilt), and a sophisticated transmission protocol based on a 125 kHz magnetic carrier that allows for high data rates and short transmission packages, helping to avoid data collisions when multiple wireless devices are used simultaneously. It is powered by a user-replaceable CR123 battery.
