    Heads up display that fits in your snow goggles. Not sure how useful they'd be to skiiers/snowboarders, but I can see this tech reaching motorcycle helmets one day. That'd be cool.

    Very cool idea. But the technology isn't there yet. Tested this out before and hated it. This has been out for a few years and it hasn't caught on because of the quality.

    If it was accurate & easy to read it would be great. It doesn't fit either of those criteria yet.

    Some day.

    what do you mean the technology isnt there? it is there and been here. My 1991 240sx had a HUD. Military helmets and other vehicles had HUD's. Even Sportvue HUD has been out for a while, although not sure if it's still out. the only reason i can't see it catching on is because all that information is given directly in front of your face. there is just no need.

    Of course! What good is a GPS that doesn't show how full of poo my motorcycle's speedometer is.

    The technology isn't at a point where you can have a quality/affordable product for the average consumer.
    This companies display is grainy, blurry, and inaccurate.
