BMW Motorrad has launched its very own smartglasses. The BMW Motorrrad ConnectedRide Smartglasses provide the head-up display technology already familiar from the automotive sector and project all relevant data, such as navigation, speed or gear, directly into the rider’s field of vision in real time.
Compatible with any BMW Motorrad equipped with a TFT display and the ConnectedRide system, the BMW Motorrad ConnectedRide Smartglasses can be easily connected to your smartphone via Bluetooth and app. The projection can be positioned and the settings can be selected before the ride and while riding via the multicontroller on the motorcycle handlebars.
The design of the smartglasses and the display has been adapted to meet the special needs of motorcyclists. It’s also adapted to fit numerous helmets and face shapes. This makes the smartglasses comfortable to wear even on long day trips. The lithium-ion battery enables up to ten hours of operation.
BMW Motorrad also supplies two sets of certified UVA/UVB lenses with the frame. One set of lenses is 85 percent transparent and can be used especially for helmets with integrated sun visors. The other set has tinted lenses turning the smartglasses into a perfect pair of sunglasses.
For people who wear glasses, there is an RX adapter (+/- 4.5 diopters) which can be ordered directly online.
The recommended retail price for the BMW Motorrad ConnectedRide Smartglasses is 690 Euros (P 42,000).
