MicroOLED Introduces the First AR Solution to Enable Real-Time Display of Apple Watch Sensor Data

ActiveLook powered products are the ideal companion for Apple Watch Ultra; All Apple Watch OS 9 users can view running dynamics in real-time, in their natural field of view, without breaking stride

MicroOLED, the company that specializes in the design and manufacture of OLED microdisplays, announced the first of its kind integration of the ActiveLook “Light AR” platform with Apple Watch. The integration allows Apple Watch users to connect ActiveLook-enabled eyewear directly to the Apple Watch via Bluetooth, and view sports performance metrics in their natural field of view.

With the ability to create up to three “dashboards” of real-time data using the ActiveLook application for Watch OS, ActiveLook eyewear can display performance metrics such as Running Pace, Heart Rate and Running Power, in addition to the latest running dynamics metrics introduced with Watch OS 9 which include Stride Length, Ground Contact Time, and Vertical Oscillation.

Placing this data in the runner’s natural field of view eliminates the need to break stride, shift focus and change body mechanics to monitor performance, which enables athletes to train and compete with seamless access to real-time information. ActiveLook provides a competitive advantage for endurance athletes such as marathoners and triathletes who rely on real-time metrics such as pace and heart rate in order to achieve their personal best. As such, ActiveLook-enabled eyewear are a perfect companion to the just-announced Apple Watch Ultra. ActiveLook makes performance metrics accessible instantly, at a glance, and without the friction associated with attempting to view a wrist-worn display during hard efforts.
