A cruise line has created a waterproof version of Snapchat's Spectacles

The device is currently in testing, but will roll out to customers later this Autumn.

The custom Spectacles, dubbed SeaSeekers, are currently being tested by professional divers.

Cruise line Royal Caribbean is set to offer its customers a waterproof pair of Snapchat Spectacles to dive in the sea and capture footage.

The so-called "SeaSeekers" are just a prototype for now, but can last up to 30 minutes underwater, and reach 150 feet below the surface.

Royal Caribbean is currently testing the sea goggles with two divers, marine biologist Gabriela Nava and wildlife photographer Roberto Ochoa, but plan to roll out a final device to customers by this fall.

The masks will let people capture the best moments of their submarine explorations without having to carry a GoPro or other specialised equipment.
