Activelook appears to be the technology.
If you scroll down, there are glasses made by three brands. I made a YouTube review of HUDs back in 2018. I've asked one of the Activelook brands to send me a sample…
BeneGi, you are right.
I called Garmin Support to ask if this was an oversight and they confirmed it won't be added as it's no longer a supported device. Really a shame because it still works fine…
I may have discovered an alternative for us Heads-Up Display enthusiasts. Something called "Activelook" has been adopted by 3 manufacturers and they have a Garmin datafield.
Yes, it would mean…

Very disappointed. The VariaVision was not a cheap accessory and has worked flawlessly since I purchased it from Garmin less than 4 years ago. It likely wasn't a big money maker as a lot of riders might not opt for shelling out that amount of money for it. But, like many other devices, once you have used it, you feel vulnerable without it. How difficult would it have been to make it functional on the 1040? I doubt it would have been very difficult especially since I am sure it follows a similar code as the other devices Garmin makes that are compatible. Now I will have to rethink my decision and consider returning my 1040 for just that reason.
