Featuring a [HUD unit and a camera](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cyclehud), the glasses will allow you to keep an eye on directions without taking your eyes off the screen and record your ride automatically for safety purposes. The glasses also feature [bone-conducting panels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/musiccam) on the right and left temples that eliminates the need to wear traditional headphones, while also keeping your hearing open for safety reasons during rides. The ergonomic, non-invasive design ensures they are ideal for avid cyclist commuters and those who are simply looking to capture their experience during leisure rides. The Ergonomic Smart Goggles are the design work of U2system and have won the Red Dot Design Concept Award for 2017. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.5/10 - Popularity: 93% | Activity: 94% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Gadgets](https://www.trendhunter.com/gadgets) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Connected Eyewear:** Exploring the integration of smart features, such as heads-up displays and cameras, into eyewear for various industries. - **Bone-conducting Technology:** Incorporating bone-conducting panels into headphones and other audio devices to enhance safety and situational awareness. - **Non-invasive Wearable Design:** Developing ergonomic and comfortable wearable devices that seamlessly integrate into users' daily activities. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Cycling:** Applying smart eyewear and bone-conducting technology to enhance the safety and connectedness of cyclists. - **Fitness:** Integrating smart glasses with bone-conducting audio technology to provide immersive and safe workout experiences. - **Outdoor Adventures:** Utilizing connected eyewear with built-in cameras and heads-up displays to capture and enhance outdoor activities. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [HUD-Equipped Smart Cyclist Glasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cosmo-vision.md) - [Connected Snow Sport Goggles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rekkie-smart-snow-goggles.md) - [Aftermarket Helmet HUD Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/soulrs-headsup-display.md) - [Connected Cyclist Safety Helmets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unit-1-faro-smart-helmet.md) - [Cyclist-Targeted AR Eyewear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lawk-one-ar-glasses.md) - [Camera-Equipped Smart Helmets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yashica-x-im-back-virtusx1.md) - [AR-Enabled Ski Rescue Helmets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/argus-ar-helmet.md) - [Connected Motorbike Sunglasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/connectedride-sunglasses.md) - [Camera-Equipped Smart Cyclist Helmets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/relee-m1-helmet.md)
