Delayed Surface Marker Buoy.

Delayed surface marker buoys are probably the most versatile option for divers.

The “delayed” part refers to the fact that this important tool can be put up, whilst still underwater during your dive, to get the attention of the boat crew and to let other boats in the area, know you are there, more than likely safely completing your safety stop.

This device makes the divers ultra visible to boats and is very useful for getting attention if lost at sea or when an accident happens.
An SMB is a Surface Marker Buoy, which is the same as an DSMB but it is deployed on the surface, in case divers drift away in a current.
You will also require a finger spool with line attached, in conjunction with your SMB.
