A scuba set is characterized by full independence from the surface during use, by providing breathing gas carried by the diver.

The timeline of underwater diving technology is a chronological list of notable events in the history of the development of underwater diving equipment.With the partial exception of breath-hold diving, the development of underwater diving capacity, scope, and popularity, has been closely linked to available technology, and the physiological constraints of the underwater environment.
If a weight harness is worn, or the BCD uses an integrated-weights system, the system is checked for correct assembly and function of clip release. A secondary check is to ensure that the buddy is familiar with the weight system of the diver being checked, and is able to operate it to ditch weights in an emergency.
