Wakemaker

PDA Databank

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Equip to quick-access toolbelt. Active only when selected: extend arms into movement position. Replace battery when discharged. BACKGROUND A personal DPV (diver propulsion vehicle) for long-distance transit outside a submarine without constant finning. The arm-mounted form factor improves maneuverability in tight spaces and prevents pioneers from losing the DPV during stressful situations. Not fully hands-free, but allows inventory management, item pickup, and routine touching/scratching. Do not throttle the Wakemaker until your hands are fully extended in the movement position. Allegations that the Wakemaker is wrist-mounted so that it can steer expired colonists back to biobeds for recycling are ghoulish and false. User experience remains the design team's north star.
