Effectively, it was dealing with experts, not hobbyists. And this is why the company\u2019s first product was an underwater drone to assist in exploration.<\/p>\n<p>Geneinno had some success with this, but noticed something one day: someone jumped into a swimming pool with one of their drones, grabbed it, and used it to drag themselves around.<\/p>\n<p>Like when Newton saw the <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>le fall, an idea was born. They began designing the S1 underwater scooter. But, of course, this wasn\u2019t without its challenges.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Wang told me one of the biggest obstacles they had to overcome was power, both on the battery and motor side. The key for\u00a0Geneinno was\u00a0finding the perfect balance between the size and speed of the vehicle. It had to be powerful enough to drag someone along, but small enough to be transportable.<\/p>\n<p>To hit the sweet spot,\u00a0Geneinno tested a range of different motors, batteries, and chassis before it launched the S1.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"post-image post-mediaBleed aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-featured_img wp-image-1329393 lazy\" alt=\":bigdickenergy:\" width=\"796\" height=\"448\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 796px) 100vw, 796px\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2020\/11\/Geneinno-S1-796x448.jpg\" data-lazy=\"true\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2020\/11\/Geneinno-S1-796x448.jpg 796w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2020\/11\/Geneinno-S1-280x158.jpg 280w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2020\/11\/Geneinno-S1-480x270.jpg 480w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2020\/11\/Geneinno-S1-240x135.jpg 240w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2020\/11\/Geneinno-S1-1200x675.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2020\/11\/Geneinno-S1.jpg 1280w\"\/><figcaption><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/thenextweb.com\/plugged\/2020\/11\/25\/design-underwater-scooter-drone-ggeneinno-s2\/#\" data-url=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?url=https%3A%2F%2Fthenextweb.com%2Fplugged%2F2020%2F11%2F25%2Fdesign-underwater-scooter-drone-ggeneinno-s2%2F&amp;via=thenextweb&amp;related=thenextweb&amp;text=Check out this picture on: This is the original underwater scooter, the Geneinno S1.\" data-title=\"Share This is the original underwater scooter, the Geneinno S1. on Twitter\" data-width=\"685\" data-height=\"500\" class=\"post-image-share popitup\" title=\"Share This is the original underwater scooter, the Geneinno S1. on Twitter\"><i class=\"icon icon--inline icon--twitter--dark\"\/><\/a>This is the original underwater scooter, the Geneinno S1.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_move_from_the_Geneinno_S1_to_to_the_Geneinno_S2\"><\/span>The move from the Geneinno S1 to to the Geneinno S2<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The original underwater scooter \u2014 the S1 \u2014 followed the same pattern as the company\u2019s drone,\u00a0with\u00a0Geneinno targeting divers and other marine professionals. But it quickly saw the potential in the wider market and it decided to build a product more suited to the consumer.<\/p>\n<p>I asked Dr. Wang how\u00a0Geneinno shifted the design from a B2B product, to a B2C.<\/p>\n<p>One of the big aspects revolved around excitement.\u00a0The S1 was designed to move divers slowly around a landscape, while the S2 had to be more fun. This meant, as Dr. Wang told me, increasing the motor efficiency.<\/p>\n<p>Another change in this vein was switching out the removable battery in the S1 and using an in-built one in the S2. This, combined with a Bluetooth element that allows the underwater scooter to be controlled from afar, made it far more suitable for children and families.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Wang summed up the evolution as a design change of system, structure, and shape \u2014 all focused on making the S2 ideal to use for the <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/general\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"3\" title=\"General\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">general<\/a> consumer.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"post-image post-mediaBleed aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-featured_img wp-image-1329394 lazy\" alt=\"Geneinno S2 underwater scooter in the actual water\" width=\"796\" height=\"448\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 796px) 100vw, 796px\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2020\/11\/Geneinno-S2-underwater-scooter-in-the-actual-water-796x448.jpg\" data-lazy=\"true\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2020\/11\/Geneinno-S2-underwater-scooter-in-the-actual-water-796x448.jpg 796w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2020\/11\/Geneinno-S2-underwater-scooter-in-the-actual-water-280x158.jpg 280w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2020\/11\/Geneinno-S2-underwater-scooter-in-the-actual-water-480x270.jpg 480w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2020\/11\/Geneinno-S2-underwater-scooter-in-the-actual-water-240x135.jpg 240w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2020\/11\/Geneinno-S2-underwater-scooter-in-the-actual-water-1200x675.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2020\/11\/Geneinno-S2-underwater-scooter-in-the-actual-water.jpg 1280w\"\/><figcaption><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/thenextweb.com\/plugged\/2020\/11\/25\/design-underwater-scooter-drone-ggeneinno-s2\/#\" data-url=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?url=https%3A%2F%2Fthenextweb.com%2Fplugged%2F2020%2F11%2F25%2Fdesign-underwater-scooter-drone-ggeneinno-s2%2F&amp;via=thenextweb&amp;related=thenextweb&amp;text=Check out this picture on: This makes me want to live underwater.\" data-title=\"Share This makes me want to live underwater. on Twitter\" data-width=\"685\" data-height=\"500\" class=\"post-image-share popitup\" title=\"Share This makes me want to live underwater. on Twitter\"><i class=\"icon icon--inline icon--twitter--dark\"\/><\/a>This makes me want to live underwater.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Whats_next_for_Geneinno\"><\/span>What\u2019s next for\u00a0Geneinno?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The company is planning another edition of the S2, as the market for use in swimming pools and for casual users still has a lot of growth potential.<\/p>\n<p>Apart from that, the company\u2019s focus is trying to satisfy the needs of two very different user groups: those looking for a fun bit of kit, and professionals searching for high-quality equipment.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m excited to see where\u00a0Geneinno goes next on its design journey.
