Diving is evolving. Gone are the days when divers had to laboriously memorize the coordinates of their favorite sites or rely on rough visual markers. The Swift GPS by Shearwater embodies this technological revolution by merging integrated air management with a high-precision GNSS positioning system. This innovative transmitter automatically captures your entry and exit points, transforming each dive into geolocated data exploitable within the Shearwater Cloud ecosystem.
A Wireless Transmitter That Redefines Dive Traceability
The Swift GPS is not just a pressure transmitter. It is a true interface between the underwater world and modern digital tools. Compatible with all Shearwater dive computers equipped with integrated air management, this device communicates critical data in real-time: air pressure, GPS position, and depth. On the surface, your dive computer synchronizes this information with Shearwater Cloud, automatically generating a map of your dives. This way, you can precisely geolocate each explored site, a revolutionary feature for regular divers who are gradually building their personal database of top sites.
Technical Reliability and Robustness in Extreme Conditions
The design of the Swift GPS reflects the reliability demands specific to underwater equipment. With a depth limit of 200 meters, this transmitter accompanies both technical and recreational dives without compromise. Its advanced collision avoidance system ensures reliable communication, even when multiple Swift transmitters operate simultaneously. This technical feat relies on a random transmission interval preventing interference, solving one of the major issues of wireless systems in densely populated environments.
On the electronic front, the Swift GPS integrates multi-constellation GNSS receivers: GPS L1C/A, Galileo E1B/C, and BeiDou B1l. This technological redundancy ensures precise localization within 4 meters with a resolution of 2 meters, even in coastal areas where the signal may be degraded. The CR2 lithium battery offers up to 100 hours of diving or two years of storage, eliminating the chronic energy constraints of portable devices.
Thermally robust, the Swift GPS operates between +4 °C and +34 °C under normal conditions, with an extended range of -10 °C to +50 °C for short use. Its installation on the first stage of the regulator is tool-free, ensuring accessible maintenance even in field situations.
Transform Your Dives into a Mapped Database
The Swift GPS represents much more than an accessory: it is an investment in the traceability of your diving experience. Each dive becomes geographically documented, gradually creating a personal map of your explorations. For dive clubs, professional guides, and passionate divers looking to optimize their trips and discoveries, this technology offers a concrete and measurable competitive advantage.
