Looks like AT throwing down, and cant make out who else? Rad to see that being done in front of such a big audience!

Sortta looked like R-Dog to me. But don't quote me on that. I was just watching another helmet cam video and thinking that someone needed to integrate the camera into the goggles. Glasses first. Maybe Google goggles are next?

Liquid Image makes goggles w/ cameras built in already - very surprised they haven't caught on more as the POV is noticeably better w/ where the camera sits.

I think for the Google Goggles they were actually streaming the video from the Go-Pro's they had attached (using glasses wireless connection). I could be wrong though.
Here's a video showing off the concept of the Google Goggles:
