About Odyssea
Odyssea is Prospero Productions’ specialist design submersible.
It enables a pilot and one passenger to descend below the ocean’s surface to the maximum depth of 200 metres. It has a length of five metres, a height of two and a half metres, and a weight of 3.2 tonnes. Odyssea offers a unique opportunity to view from a 250-degree perspective and capture the marine world with its 200-degree, 4k cameras as rarely seen before.
The thick, acrylic domed cabin creates a safe, 1 atmosphere environment and the cabin opens as a clamshell and allows for easy entry and exit for the occupants.
Odyssea has a maximum mission dive time of 8 hours and a life support system of up to 72 hours.
