We've all heard about wearable computers that are coming, whether the Pebble watch or Google's Project Glass. But here's a team that actually shipped a product: Oakley's AirWave Googles for skiiers and snow boarders.

This heralds the contextual age where products will make you smarter about what you are doing. These http://www.oakley.com/airwave show you where on the mountain you are, where your friends are, how many vertical feet, and a lot more.

In this video you meet the guy who runs the team and get some inside info about how they were developed.
