The new Audex jacket allows winter sports enthusiasts to experience seamless connectivity – at the touch of a button – from one environment to the next. The product was jointly developed by Motorola and Burton to bring wearable technology to active consumers

“It is with great enthusiasm that we announce the commercial availability of the Audex Jacket Series,” said Bruce Hawver, VP and Director, Companion Products Group, Motorola, Inc. “Whether you’re an amateur rider or professional, this jacket equipped with Bluetooth wireless technology will change the way you connect – on and off the slopes.”"
