What about Recon's goggles? How is this AR and Recon's not?

@d0b0 Was about to comment this. Recon's first pair was launched in 2010. Experience (in store) was almost identical to the demo here, minus video recording.

Awesome concept, I just can't take what their mockup/concept video is promising seriously. :(

@callan752 vaporware for sure.

I'm confused, does the AR cover your entire vision? Or just the corner 'screen' inside the glasses?
Callan Christensen
@jesse__muller As you can see in the gif. I would have say that latter.

I might be a traditionalist, but I go snowboarding to get *away* from computers and screens. To be free in the great outdoors. I can see the value in having dashboard metrics like speed, temp, GPS, etc. but not to set up virtual "gates" that I need to snowboard through.

I think, Product idea is very nice, according the demo video. I also think There are many other areas than just snowboard.

Hmmm, seeing as google ski googles already set you back $100+/pair, and are flexible enough to endure a fall I'm very skeptical of these. Their purchase page says they will retail for $899 but you can preorder for only $629!! Augmented Reality for action sports, and skiing could be really fantastic. But nothing they showed in the video was compelling. I wouldn't message my friend to follow me, I'd just tell him too with words out of my mouth. I doubt the electronics would hold up well to more than a handful of intense falls before breaking, and it seems to require a phone to do a lot of interactions. Whenever I do get out to ride I love being able to disconnect and enjoy the air, snow, and friends.
