While we’ve seen various ski goggles that have featured a built-in heads up display, Recon Instruments is providing a new add-on that will allow users to add its MOD Live Package to a range of goggles. The Vancouver-based company is offering “real-time information direct to eye” for skiers and snow boarders. The MOD Live will work with “Recon Ready” goggles from Uvex, Briko, Alpina and Zeal Optics.
The device, which fits inside the goggles features a small color LCD screen (428 x 240-pixel resolution), with let’s wearers see speed, altitude, jump distance, time and temperature along with other information via built-in GPS, and it even works as a viewfinder for helmet mounted cameras. It communicates with an Android-based smartphone via a strap-on Bluetooth remote. Let’s just hope with all this information that skiers can still take in the scenic beauty of their surroundings and remember to watch out for the trees!
