The Internet has connected tens of billions of devices worldwide, but the underwater network has not yet been brought in, but scientists have recently succeeded in developing a system that works as a WiFi booster for deep-sea divers, allowing them to share photos and snapshots in real time on rooftop computers .
The technology called "Aqu-fi" uses radio waves to transfer data from the diver's smart phone to Raspberry Pi connected to underwater devices, after which LED lights or lasers send data to a rooftop computer that translates them into pictures or videos.
According to the British "Daily Mail" website, the researchers say their system is able to "upload and download multimedia between two computers a few feet away in still water", with data transfer
speeds of 2.11MB per second.
Aqua-Fi supports internet services, such as sending multimedia messages, either using LED lights or lasers, and the technology uses radio waves to transfer data from the diver's smart phone to the Raspberry Pi computer connected to their underwater devices.
Similar to the support that increases the WiFi range of a home internet router, Aqua-Fi sends data using a light beam to a rooftop computer connected to the Internet via satellite.
The computer converts photos and videos into a series, which are translated into light rays that work and turn off at very high speeds.
The team tested the system by uploading and downloading content between two computers a few feet away in fixed water, and reached a maximum data transfer speed of 2.11MB per second and an average delay of 1.00 milliseconds for a round trip.
