IT168 Vendor News On October 20, 2016, the "Camorama4K Panoramic Motion Camera China Conference on the Road" hosted by Advantage Development (Beijing) Technology Co., Ltd. was held in Beijing. This was the first launch ceremony of the product in China.
Camorama panoramic camera mainly achieved three major industry breakthroughs. The first is the use of 4K panoramic video shooting methods, the traditional sports camera is limited by the camera angle and pixels, it is often difficult to shoot ultra-clear 360° video and photos in the sports, and Camorama can be achieved with a key; second is the eMMC built-in storage Design, Camorama's built-in storage makes data write and write faster, more stable, more suitable for sports and 4K video recording; Third, you can complete panoramic video sharing and live broadcast, Camorama's panoramic video can be shot in Youku, Youtube, Facebook social platform real-time Share and support live broadcast/VR live broadcast.
The three major breakthroughs that Camorama can achieve are inextricably linked to its external and internal design processes and software algorithms. First of all, the appearance of Camorama inherited the design style of the previous generation product Tianyuan, with malachite green, rust red, and metal gray three colors, the size is 48mmX48mmX51mm, weighs less than 120g, the whole volume is about the size of an egg, almost The most sophisticated 4K panoramic motion camera in the world today.
The camera lens adopts an upgraded 360° X 230° special lens, which has anti-purple and anti-glare function and supports ultra-clear video shooting with a maximum resolution of 2880 x 2880. The new lens has a 5H hardness anti-fingerprint film, which can greatly reduce the risk of scratches and stains on the lens. The product also comes with a magnetic lens cap and base that can be snapped onto a magnetic metal surface for shooting. In order to apply to drone aerial photography, vehicle-mounted, underwater, hidden shooting and other scenes, Advantage Technology has introduced kits including electric pan-tilt heads, waterproof shells, metal protective shells, sports watch remotes, selfie sticks, and tripods.
In terms of the kernel, Camorama uses the Ambarella 4K top chip and SONY 4K high-end industrial chip to match the shooting needs of professional users for panoramic ultra-clear video. The 1300mAh special battery used in the product has greatly improved the battery energy efficiency through the optimization algorithm and increased the product's battery life. The storage media abandons the TF memory card design and uses 32G, 64G, 128G built-in eMMC storage. Compared with the pluggable memory card, the design can greatly enhance its stability in motion shooting. In addition, the product also integrates gyroscopes, gravity sensors, electronic compass and other functions, more convenient for the user to obtain the attitude, acceleration and azimuth information of the camera during the shooting process, and to minimize image instability due to jitter through software algorithms. .
The camera supports a watch-style Bluetooth remote control that enables real-time remote control and camera status inquiries. Built-in high-performance WIFI module can support 2.4G/5G dual-band signal transmission, strong anti-interference ability, transmission distance up to 100 meters. A quick connection between the mobile phone and the panoramic camera can be achieved, and functions such as shooting, previewing, and sharing can be achieved through application software (APP). The camera has standard shooting, time-lapse shooting, continuous shooting and high-speed shooting, in which high-speed photography of 240 frames per second can effectively capture the stunning moment.
It is a feature of Camorama that it is able to capture panoramic images in any frame of the recorded panoramic video. Whether in the preview or in the download state, the user can capture a panoramic photo from the captured panoramic video simply by pressing both hands on the mobile phone screen, and easily share social platforms such as WeChat and QQ. Panoramic video can also be tailored to user needs for cutting, shifting, beautifying, adding titles, endings, and subtitles, so that the sharer's panoramic video is full of personalization features. In the viewing mode, the app also supports circular, small planet, 360° horizontal and VR four ways to watch, especially in VR mode, the user through the helmet to watch 4K super clear video can get immersive experience.
On September 27, 2016, the Camorama 4K panoramic motion camera was successfully crowdfunded with Kickstarter, the world's best-known crowdfunding platform, achieving a target quota of 627%. At the press conference, Camorama will announce the launch of the platform for Taobao crowdfunding. Among them, the 32G user universal version will be launched. The crowdfunding experience price is only 1,499 yuan and will be available 40 days later to meet the strong purchase demand of domestic consumers.
