Remember when cameras were huge, bulky objects with a limited view, or even before cameras were created and you had to sit still and pose for an artist to draw your portrait? Well, it has drastically changed since then! Now, cameras have evolved and become so much more innovative and effective. The newest technology that cameras have been upgraded to is the 360 Degree Camera. The 360 Degree Cameras help you easily capture the world around you by video or picture. This camera is typically used to capture beautiful and breathtaking views or action-filled sports such as skydiving, biking or skiing.
To use the 360 degree camera, you simply hold it in the air and record. When you look at the video or picture feed, you can click and drag the mouse to see everything the camera viewed. The only area you may not be able to see it the source or person who held the camera. 360 Degree Cameras are very intricate and complicated. There are several different brands and models of this type of camera available.
Samsung’s version of the product, the Samsung Gear 360, has two lenses: one on the front and one on the back. It includes real 4K video qualifications. The images captured by this camera will be crisp and clear. Samsung Gear 360 includes a live broadcast feature to share with your friends and family who were not able to attend the event.
Another common company's product is the GoPro’s Omni. The GoPro Omni requires six GoPro cameras to operate correctly. It takes the footage from the different cameras and stitches them together to create the 360 Degree Image. Both cameras are great ways to capture amazing sites and unforgettable memories.
