Once connected, you can do things like track heartbeat and power generated during your ride.
The glasses are designed to work with Android or iOS devices and can sync with smartphones via Bluetooth. The glasses support ANT+ to display work out information on the headset. The glasses are designed to be modular making them easy to repair with replacement parts if needed. The small display can also show caller ID information and text messages from a smartphone.
