How is Garmin going to convince you to buy one of its ViRB action cameras instead of a GoPro? By making them work anywhere and talk to anything, apparently. The company's new ViRB X and ViRB XE cams have a brand new design that lets them work underwater without a case, more choices for mounts and easier controls. They're also chock-full of sensors and connections that track your activities with more detail -- they combine the built-in accelerometer, GPS and gyroscope with compatible wireless gear (such as Garmin's heart rate monitor and Fenix sports watches) to gauge your performance. You can even overlay this data when you're working with footage in Garmin's mobile app, so it's easier to brag about your adventures when you post them online.
