A buoyancy compensation device and method for a scuba diver or other underwater object, which decreases buoyancy by actively pumping air from a flexible bladder while the diver or object is in any orientation, said bladder having internally a manifold assembly providing access to pockets of air anywhere within the bladder. In addition, said device and method may be adapted for automatically diving, surfacing, or maintaining a predetermined water depth while the diver or object is in any orientation and while the diver's or object's orientation changes, including a sensor for measuring water depth, one or more control inputs for selecting a depth, and a controller unit that determines descent rate, ascent rate, or maintenance of a selected depth based on monitoring the water depth, the setting of the control inputs, and the diver's or objects previous habits and behavior.
