Smart goggles display lap count and time elapsed

Smart goggles that help swimmers log lengths have been designed by a UK design student. The Inview goggles display a lap count and time elapsed on their lenses so swimmers can track their progress. Invented by industrial design student Katie Williams, the goggles use an in-built compass to spot when swimmers complete lengths. Ms Williams said the goggles would let swimmers concentrate on improving their strokes rather than count laps.
