The RideOn AR snow goggles have just appeared on Indiegogo, offering skiers and snowboarders a view of the mountain augmented with digital overlays. Don one of these headsets and you can get directions, messages, weather reports, virtual gates and more projected right in front of your eyes.

These kind of features are particularly useful up on a mountain, where the weather is often difficult and your hands are usually gloved up and holding skiing poles. Imagine being able to see which route to take down a slope or send a quick text reply to a friend just by tilting your head and moving your eyes. It's also possible to try and beat your previous run down a mountain and call up waiting times at gates and lifts.
