Design

The design we selected is the diving cylinder as it was better than the jet ski.
The brochure design that we chose was the 3 panel brochure as it is the best design to have with the best balance of information and colourfulness. This also is the best design of a brochure as it is the easiest to do with the best results.


There can be a wireless link between the diving cylinder and the surface team or the diver himself where they can know when the tank is about to run out. It can also be used to tell how the diver is breathing to tell if he is safe and is breathing normally.

GPS Tracking Device that tracks your location and sends its info to the people above water.
A foldout metal detector to find precious metals on the seabed and slightly underneath for a business venture or expedition.
There can be a salt measuring device, which alerts the diver when there is more salinity in the surrounding water.
There can be a small compressor to immediately start filling the cylinder upon resurfacing.

Sports Gear in the Water

Business Brochures

This is the beginning of a project that involves creating a design for a sports gear of water sports and creating a brochure advertising it.
The types of brochures that are used by businesses are. The different businesses that use brochures are supermarkets, for new product releases and discounts they may offer, restaurants use brochures to advertise their discounts, offers and their home delivery services, event organizers use brochures to bring in more people.
 The 3 panel brochures are brochures with 2 folds and 3 panels. This is used to show 6 different pieces of information and advertising. The flyer, this is a no fold sheet of paper containing all the information on both sides.
The design of the brochure would be a 2 fold brochure as it has the best amount of space for the information required and can contain enough information on each page without seeming too boring and dull. The design of the product will be more technological to make sure people become safer and prepared for any disaster.
                                                                                                             

There are many sports gears that are used in water sports such as:

Jets skis
o    These are motorized bikes except on the water that you sit on you can accelerate and steer.



·       Wetsuits
o  Wetsuits are designed to keep the heat in and to make sure that you don’t create too much friction between yourself and the water.

·       Diving Cylinders
o  These are small high-pressure tanks that contain breathable air that scuba divers use to travel far depths without having to resurface for air.



The consumers would like to change the dive time of this as it is quite limited as after a certain period you need to surface slowly. It would also be better if the diving tank was lighter as this would increase efficiency as you would require less energy to transport it needing less air.
