BMW introduces ConnectedRide Smartglasses, merging Terminator-style head-up display with motorcycle utility.
The sleek smart sunglasses feature a HUD on the right lens, displaying vital data like speed, temperature, gear, and turn-by-turn navigation. Battery lasts 10 hours, accommodating day-long rides. Adaptable to various head shapes and helmets, they come with transparent or tinted lenses, the latter transforming them into sunglasses.
Controlled via smartphone apps or handlebar buttons, these glasses evoke childhood cyborg dreams. Set to release in the US later this year, pricing details are awaited. BMW’s blend of futuristic tech and motorcycle aesthetics appeals, despite potential costs and glitches.
