arnFounded in 2012, ABOM, Inc., launched the world’s first active anti-fog goggles. ABOM answered a simple yet long standing question that was being asked by many after a day of skiing where fogging goggles were the days problem. When a driver starts up their car in the winter months, the first think they do is turn on the defroster… “Why can’t my goggles do that?” Thus began the search for the solution. Finally, after years of engineering, designing, and testing, the solution was found by sandwiching a thin, electrically-heated film layer between two polycarbonate lenses, the goggle lens can heat up and stay heated to a temperature that melts the fog away and keeps it away. Recently we caught up with ABOM Director of Product Marketing, Ashley Stevens, and asked her a few questions about ABOM Goggles.
