These Android-Powered Recon Alpine Goggles Make Snowboarding Like a Real Life Video Game


If you think Android is limited to smartphones and tablets, think again. Recon Instruments have created new tech which will equip their goggles with the OS, able to run apps that deliver real-time info right in front of your face.
Outfitted with eyewear tech from Zeal optics, the Recon-Ready goggles displayGPS maps/data, buddy tracking, spedometers, odometers, thermometers, clocks, stopwatches, run counters and more are all available in the micro LCD heads up display built into the goggles. In addition, these things can interface with Android phones via bluetooth to display Caller ID, text messages and music playlists, without having to pull your phone out of your pocket.


Mike thinks "Flint" should set itself up as the Australasian distributor!
