  "account": "Speedo has introduced a new line of smart goggles called the iQ Vanquisher 3.0, designed to help swimmers track and improve their performance. These goggles, available in three colors, offer a unique approach to swimming technology by presenting data only after the swimmer exits the pool, allowing users to focus on their technique without distractions. The iQ Vanquisher 3.0 features an on-off button, a magnetic charging port, and a charging cable that should not get wet. Once charged and connected to a phone via Bluetooth, swimmers can sync their swims to the Speedo iQ app and review insights such as head position, pace, and turn performance during and after their swim. The goggles track all four swimming strokes, providing data on pace, distance, breathing, and more. Speedo iQ’s smart goggles have been approved for competition use by World Aquatics, making them suitable for serious swimmers who want to harness the power of underwater data. The goggles charge in 90 minutes and have a battery life of four hours, lasting multiple swims between charges. The seamless experience of using these goggles, both in and out of the water, allows swimmers to concentrate on their technique without being overwhelmed by notifications or distractions. Priced at $189/£149, the Speedo iQ Vanquisher 3.0 smart goggles are available for purchase.",
