Alpine lovers and skiers, pay attention! Remember way back in February when Recon Instruments announced that it will roll out the first GPS-enabled goggles in October of 2010? Well, the good news is that Recon Instruments is on the mark – as planned. The highly anticipated Recon-Zeal Transcend goggles are now available. The excitement over these devices is highly understandable. They are positioned for a limited release for this year, and shipment is planned to ensure that they are ready once the snow starts to trickle in.
The Recon-Zeal Transcend goggles will be available in two models. The first one is the Transcend SPPX featuring the SPPX polarized and photo-chromic lens priced at $499, and the other one is the Transcend SPX with SPX polarized lens offered at $399.
So, what exactly are the big-time features of these goggles that make their release important news? Well for a start, they are not the usual Oakley goggles sold in many ski shops. These are the only goggles available in the planet which give users real-time feedback when it comes to speed, latitude and longitude, altitude, and distance traveled. Plus, these gadgets incorporate stopwatch, run-counter, temperature, and time check. And did we mention that these Recon-Zeal Transcend goggles are the only ones fitted with GPS capabilities?
We can go on and on here, but what is certain is that the next adventure of skiers on the Alps will never be the same again. So, are you ready to hit the slopes with these Recon goggles?
What does the G.I. Joe’s Delta 6 Accelerator, Spartan’s MJONIR and Tony Stark’s Ironman armor have in common except their hi-tech ultra tough exoskeleton? That would be the warrior within and more importantly – a really cool Head Mounted Display Systems with an integrated A.I. Besides, who can forget Jarvis? Sci-fi movies have a knack for inspiring some really cool gadgets like the new Recon Instrument’s new ski goggles with direct to eye HUD.
