Recon
Instruments decided to support our event in a very unique way – provide
demo sessions for their latest innovation product – Augmented Reality
for Goggles.
Recon Instruments is the Vancouver
based company behind the world’s first Head Up Display (HUD) called MOD
Live. Designed especially for skiing, the HUD provides real-time
performance information to the user including speed, jump statistics,
altitude, distance traveled, temperature, vertical distance traveled. It
also connects via Bluetooth to smartphones so the user can see SMS,
caller ID, and their music playlist without getting their phone out
their pocket.
MOD Live has a navigation feature
so the user can view runs, points of interest and even their buddies on
the mountain. The easy-to-use user interface is navigated using a
wireless remote
For those who would like to extend the experience on a mountain peak, MOD Live can be ordered here http://www.reconinstruments.com/shop and costs 399.99 EUR.
Great news for us – we have NFC cards for all our attendees.
If
you don’t know what does ”NFC” mean just look on wikipedia: “Near field
communication (NFC) is a set of standards for smartphones and similar
devices to establish radio communication with each other by touching
them together or bringing them into close proximity, usually no more
than a few centimetres. Present and anticipated applications include
contactless transactions, data exchange, and simplified setup of more
complex communications such as Wi-Fi.”
Let’s try to find more by using them!
Peter Stamm, Co-Founder & CEO @WhereGroup_com: “WhereGroup is where the
knowledge meets, and therefore supports the WhereCamp in Berlin. We will
be there to discuss and to share ideas, and to bring in our experience
as one of the leading geo-companies in Germany. We are looking forward
to seeing you in Berlin!”
Our agenda is available!
