What to See and Why
In the middle of 2014, GIROPTIC headed to Kickstarter to look for $150,000 to create the world's first full HD 360° camera. By the time the campaign ended, it had raised nearly $1.5 million, and was on its way to becoming a real thing. This handheld 360cam is a wonder. Not only can it capture video and photos, but it's also able to deliver real time streaming video over Wi-Fi. Its 360° videos are complemented by surround sound captured by the 360cam's three microphones. With universal mounting capabilities, you'll be sure you can capture everything -- anywhere you go. It's even waterproof! The 360cam offers far more than casual personal use, though. It can be an extremely simple cloud-based security system, or it can share an in-person experience (like a concert) with people all over the world.
