You Can Finally Breathe Underwater With This Groundbreaking Device

by Robert Anthony

Swimming. Wouldn't it be more fun if you didn't have to hold your breath to do it? Well, that might actually be possible with this groundbreaking mask that has been developed by Yanko Design. It's called the "Triton Oxygen Mask". The mask works as an artificial gill like the ones fish have. Apparently, it has the ability to be able to separate oxygen from the water while diving. According to TIP News, a strip of tiny fabrics features nearly microscopic holes, which are much smaller than water molecules. The mask is said to have been developed by a Korean scientist who's always wanted to be able to breathe underwater.

"Using a very small but powerful micro compressor, it compresses oxygen and stores the extracted oxygen in storage tank. The micro compressor operates through micro battery." - Yanko Design
