[ad_1]

After a first version in 2012, Oakley returned in late 2013 with a new version of his smart health connected mask, the Airwave 1.5. A true benchmark in ski goggles, the manufacturer still remains on the very top of the range, both in design and in optical protection, with "Plutonite" glass which filters 100% of UV rays. This jewel is unfortunately not for everyone, it will be necessary have at least an iPhone 4S or Android 4.1+ to be able to enjoy it.

Rediscover skiing with Oakley!

For those who don't know it yet, the Oakley Airwave 1.5 mask allows you, thanks to GPS, Bluetooth 4.0 and WiFi, to record a lot of data, which you can retrieve in real time on a mini-screen placed inside the mask :

  • Geolocation : you will now be able to download the map of the 600 registered ski resorts in advance and thus use the GPS coordinates to navigate from one run to another. Oakley obviously does not forget eithersocial aspect since it is possible to locate his friends (who have an iPhone 4S, 5 or 5S) if they download theOakley Airwave Snow mobile app.

  • Performance measurement : Thanks to Bluetooth 4.0 and the MFi chip, the ski goggles communicate with your iPhone and immediately display your personal performance (speed, height, jumps, etc.) which you can also retrieve on the mobile application. For this, a message or call notification service is available, so that you no longer have to take out your iPhone.

What's New in Airwave 1.5

Oakley mostly wanted to be talked about for the new ski season, and it was successful. On the novelties side, Oakley worked on themask autonomy, which will allow the mask to operate for 6 hours (+ 30% compared to the previous version). The manufacturer also benefited by increasing the processor speed (the technology is still being developed by Recon) and launch the mobile app we talked about above (and available for free on the App Store).

Only small drawback, its price. The smart health connected mask is available on Amazon, where it is sold at € 649.
