BMW has released smart glasses for motorcyclists – Kommersant

BMW Company announced ConnectedRide Smartglasses are smart glasses designed specifically for motorcyclists. Sales of the accessory will begin before the end of 2023.

BMW Motorrad ConnectedRide can be adapted to different helmets and face shapes for maximum riding comfort. The glasses come with two sets of lenses: 85% clear lenses for helmets with built-in sun visors, and tinted lenses that turn smart glasses into sunglasses. If necessary, the lenses can be converted into corrective lenses (up to a maximum of 4 diopters), and in addition, the accessory can be combined with regular contact lenses.

The accessory connects to a smartphone and the BMW Motorrad Connected app via Bluetooth, allowing it to display navigation instructions, the current speed and the selected gear on the head-up display. The position of the data on the screen, as well as their list, can be selected and configured through the application. The lithium-ion battery is stated to provide up to ten hours of operation.
