Abstract
An underwater imaging system includes a scuba facemask having a viewing portion that defines a user field-of-view. An imager generates image data of an area in an imaging field-of-view. The imager is coupled to the facemask such that the imaging field-of-view at least partially overlaps the user field-of-view. A display mounted in a lower portion of the user field-of-view is coupled to the imager for displaying images to the user based on the image data.
