The FORM Swim Goggles Will Be the First Wearable Tech for Swimmers
Daniel Johnson — August 7, 2019 — Tech
The new FORM swim goggles will be the first technologically integrated pair of swim goggles that present users with a real-time display. The FORM swim goggles present users with a transparent display overtop one of the googles' eyes. The display will present users with live updating information about their swimming, including laps, distance and time splits. The goggles are powered by the box that is located on top of the display. The box contains the necessary hardware, including a waveguide, gyroscope, and battery. The Goggles will be able to run for 16 hours on one charge.
Users can select already existing settings for pools of 25 meters, 25 yards, 50 meters or, 50 yards. Alternatively, users will have the ability to set the goggles for a custom pool length.
