US Patent 9424730 Device for providing directional guidance while swimming

The present invention is generally directed to a device that provides haptic, auditory and/or visual indications representing a swimmer's deviation from an intended path. Visual indications can be displayed on one or more lenses of the swimmer's goggles. In this way, the swimmer can receive continuous guidance to swim in a desired direction without lifting his head to sight. The device can be configured as a base unit that can be worn on the head and an eyepiece that is attached to a lens of the swimmer's goggles. The eyepiece can include one or more LEDs for displaying the visual indications based on information received from the base unit.
