Cool, but I think they could be better applied to TT’ing.
Hopefully, you’d use them with mirrored goggles, other wise they’d make your eye’s look wierd.
Is it me or are they upside down in the picture?
It is like a fighter pilot - augmented reality. Next we will have a helmet that projects virtual information on the road such has navigational cues, power, heart rate, speed etc., Maybe even detects and projects where is the competition - like in a video game.
Nothing short of incredible. I would be all over those.

I had the same initial reaction but then realized that the picture is correct. Check the Speedo logo on the goggles. Plus the model’s right eye reads the time as: “15:42”. If the picture were up side down then the time would not appear like it does. It seems it is just the model of goggles that has a misleading nose piece.
lol…
Williams says she believes there is a demand for her product, but she says the challenge has been finding a cost-effective way to display the information.
She doesn’t understand (or hasn’t considered) the triathlon market if she thinks she has to make it cost-effective.
Not to mention, the Roadie market.
Apperently she has no vision.
very cool indeed - I want them

Speedo made a goggle which incorporated a clock into it about 10 years ago. The clock was in the base of the goggle and it reflected off of the surface, back toward the eye. It is a clever idea that was hard to get used to (and see past)
I had actually thought of something similar to this several years ago. A compass heading would be great too, for when I have trouble seeing the next buoy.

Yeah. The tri market would totally eat this up.
