Augmented reality pool goggles
Like all athletes, swimmers like to keep track of their performance. In the past they used watches or had to stop to check the stopwatch. In Vancouver, a company has developed augmented reality goggles that are water-resistant to 10 metres. Equipped with an inertial measurement unit, a microprocessor and a transparent screen, the processor is able to track split time, interval time, rest time, total time, stroke rate, number of strokes, distance per stroke, speed at 100 or 50 metres, speed, distance, length and calories burned.
The glasses communicate with IOS or Android applications via bluetooth.
A pocket air conditioner by Sony

A patent recently unveiled by Apple and unveiled in early March 2019 describes a headset that could be used for both augmented reality and virtual reality.
It would be an autonomous glasses, with its own screens and electronic components. However, the iPhone and iPad could be used as controllers.
The Apple Glass will probably be cheaper than the Hololens (3000 euros), since it will be a device intended for the general public. The product will probably be priced between 1500 and 2000 euros.
