Life in 360
When the GoPro arrived on the scene it gave an access to sports men and women that hadn't been as readily available before.
When the GoPro arrived on the scene it gave an access to sports men and women that hadn’t been as readily available before.
Depending on where the camera was placed we could see the view of the athlete and what they were doing, or even see exactly what they were seeing.
Well now the next step in the evolution has arrived. A video camera that gives you a 360degree view that you can choose. You have the power, just drag the camera to where you want to see and its done.
Below is a small taste of 360 viewing, something that we will be doing more of in the future and it won’t be long before you are out there sailing with the competitors.
