New look for the PDA

Sigil_Thane

It seems to me that the PDA device while awesome for futurism and style has some definite drawbacks.

1. It's rather large and bulky looking.
2. It doesn't attach to your person in any way... don't drop it down into the abyss.
3. It stores your blueprints but doesn't connect to your scanner/builder/anything.
4. There is the little gripe that capacitive touch screens don't work underwater.... but SCIENCE! (with vigorous hand waving)

It seems to me that I've seen a more streamlined design around somewhere before that would make more sense for subnautica than anywhere else... oh, something like this:

or..
Glovdi: glovdi.com/ (My favorite for flavor)



But, you get my point.

Coranth

The second one is awesome!

Rainstorm

The second one is hella nice, plus it would fit pretty well in the subnautica theme

Darwin-Evolution

I love this idea, but I can't help twisting it a bit with an idea of my own.



How about using the design of the 2nd glove or a watch to project a hologrammatic computer screen instead of being on the actual device? Wouldn't that be even more futuristic?

I think that it would be more realistic to have the PDA be built into the actual suit itself. Like the pip-boy but just a screen on the sleeve.

why have a dedicated screen at all? your character is already wearing some sort of HUD just put the info on that, google glass style and add a input device to the arm.
