HPO Tech has created a single-seat hyperbaric chamber, called Oyster, with an acrylic domed lid that opens upwards like a shell.

The device contains a chair that can be upright or fully reclined, within an oval, organic-shaped chamber.

Tolga Kabak, CTO and co-founder of HPO Tech, said: "Most hyperbaric chambers are still cylindrical steel structures. With Oyster, we set that history aside. The acrylic dome is the most visible expression of that thinking, but the entire architecture follows from it." 

The company’s Built-In Breathing System delivers oxygen at 2.4 ATA medical-grade pressure. This system is managed by an integrated touchscreen console.

There is also an optional in-chamber entertainment screen for operators who want to offer their guests this kind of experience.

Other specifications operators can modify include the Oyster’s exterior colour, interior leather options and logo integration.

Alexandru Harbuzaru, chief business development officer at HPO Tech, said: "Oyster is positioned for operators who treat the chamber as part of the space, not as equipment to be tucked into a back room.”
