FORM Launches World\u2019s First Augmented Reality Swim Goggles Protected with Corning Gorilla Glass<\/strong><\/p>\n

FORM Smart Swim 2 PRO uses Corning\u00ae Gorilla\u00ae Glass to deliver unparalleled durability, a permanent fog-free experience, plus a full slate of new software features<\/em><\/p>\n

************************<\/p>\n

FORM<\/span><\/a>, the global leader in smart swim goggles, is excited to announce its latest augmented reality (AR) innovation, FORM Smart Swim 2 PRO, featuring lenses designed with Corning\u00ae Gorilla\u00ae Glass 3. Building on the acclaimed Smart Swim 2, launched in April 2024, PRO is an industry-first goggle that delivers unmatched durability and clarity in all water conditions, year after year. FORM Smart Swim 2 PRO is built for swimmers and triathletes who demand the very best in performance and protection.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

FORM Smart Swim 2 PRO has been engineered to excel when training and racing in the most demanding swim environments. FORM has integrated Gorilla Glass 3, with its proven toughness in mobile and wearable devices, to help protect the internal and external goggle lenses. Lightweight and chemically strengthened Gorilla Glass 3 delivers enhanced scratch and damage resistance. The FORM custom-engineered lens stack enhances optical quality and provides a UPF rating of 50+, blocking 98 percent of harmful UV rays.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"FORMUnlike standard swim goggles with plastic lenses and a factory-applied anti-fog coating that can degrade over time, Smart Swim 2 PRO features a user-applied anti-fog solution on durable Gorilla Glass 3 lenses to ensure each swim is fog-free, year after year. Included with each Smart Swim 2 PRO is a 10 mL anti-fog spray and a 10 mL concentrate for easy replenishment. Combined, this provides over 175 swim applications. The process is simple – before a swim, apply one spray in each lens, spread around, and rinse with water \u2014 a ten-second process to provide clear visibility and a fog-free swim, regardless of the conditions. The safe and cost-effective anti-fog solution is 25% baby shampoo and 75% water.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As the leader in AR swim tech, FORM continues to set the standard with award-winning innovations that make swimmers faster, more efficient, and more engaged. FORM Smart Swim 2 PRO offers the same world-class functionality as the Smart Swim 2 goggle, such as real-time performance metrics, including heart rate tracking, in-goggle guided workouts, virtual coaching through HeadCoach\u2122, accurate open-water navigation via SwimStraight\u2122, and much more.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cSmart Swim 2 PRO is yet another industry-leading product that pushes the boundaries of industrial design and performance, setting a new standard in goggle durability and visual clarity,\u201d said FORM founder and CEO, Dan Eisenhardt.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
