Now. Joining us today is the CEO of FORM Swim goggles; Dan Eisenhardt! Dan comes from both a competitive swimming background and an engineering background so finding a solution to in the wearable technology sector for swimming seems quite fitting for him. However, Dan actually started making smart glasses for other sports first including Skiing and cycling with companies like Intel before diving into the realm of wearable swim technology. So as I dove into the research of this project I was quite amazed at the complexity of these goggles and their capabilities. First off, they had to create a goggle that wasn’t too bulky and one that would fit a swimmer properly so that any swimmer of all levels would actually enjoy wearing the goggles. This includes the ability for a swimmer to interchange whether they want they digital display readings to be viewed from the left or right eye. They kept the goggles user friendly with only two buttons and only two metrics displayed while swimming. Through the use of Machine learning they were able to keep the experience automatic and hands free, as the goggles are able to determine the exact stroke your using, along with metrics like split times, total distance, stroke rate, and calories. They even took it a step further through a partnership with Polar where they have created a clip where you can install the Polar OH1 Optical Heart Rate Sensor to the goggles to also capture your heart rate. So for a quick overview of specs; You can view two metrics at a time through the goggles, and this is customizable using the FORM Swim app on apple or android devices as well as automatically upload the workouts onto Training Peaks, Strava, or Facebook by Bluetooth. It comes with 5 nose bridge sizes and an adjustable silicone strap, it has permanent chemical-resistant anti-fog and comes with a ventilated carrying case. It has 16 hours of battery life in the pool, and currently hosts 13 different metrics to view including split time, interval time, rest time, total time, stroke rate, stroke count, distance per stroke, pace per 100m, pace per 50m, distance, length count, calories burned, and heart rate. At the time of this podcast recording it sells for $200usd with an additional option to buy the HR Monitor from POLAR for an additional $80usd. Anyways I think I’ve left you with a ton of questions around the goggles so, let’s have a chat with Dan to see if this is the right set of Goggles to incorporate into your next swim session. Let’s get into it.
