No getting lost on slopes Oakley’s GPS camera goggles
Oakley has teamed up with Garmin to expand the functionality of its alpine goggle range.

Users of the Airwave 1.5 snow goggle will be able to wirelessly connect to the camera, allowing the goggle to serve as a live video display.

The glove-friendly remote control enables the user to control camera features, as well as data from the built-in GPS sensor.

The design allows the wearer to navigate resort maps; see jump analytics, speed and altitude; control their soundtrack and locate friends on the slopes who have Oakley Airwave goggles or the Recon Engage app on their smartphone.

The Garmin camera features built-in GPS, an accelerometer and an altimeter, and data can be overlaid on to the video recording.
