Form is releasing an update today for its smart augmented reality swim goggles that enable them to pair over Bluetooth to selected GPS smartwatches, allowing users to track their swims in real time in open water, not just in swimming pools.
The $199 Form goggles were released last year, and offered a unique method of tracking swimming metrics by using motion sensors and an AR display built into the goggles itself.
By connecting the goggles with an Apple Watch or Garmin smartwatch with GPS, allowing users to get the same real-time swim metrics (for things like distance, stroke count, calories, and more) while swimming in open water. The goggles can also show additional information pulled from the paired watch, like your current heart rate, something they were unable to do before.
