If you haven’t experienced the magic of 360-degree video, you should really give it a try. Artists and entertainers from Bjork to Conan O’Brian have used the technology to put you in the driver seat when it comes to experiencing both reproduced videos and live events. In other words, the viewer of a 360-degree video can use digital interfaces to look in any direction that he or she chooses – left, right, upwards, and downwards.
360-degree videos are made using either multiple cameras or a special omnidirectional camera that is capable of recording views in all directions at the same time. The latest in consumer grade omnidirectional cameras, the Insta360 One shoots ultra-high-definition moving images and can be attached directly to your mobile device for instant playback and editing. As you move through any environment, you become the center of the scene as the Insta360 One swoops virtually around you, capturing every angle at up to 240 frames-per-second.
This product features built in stabilization to combat shaky camerawork and live-streaming capabilities that can broadcast events via the Internet as they happen. Other features of the Insta360 One include the ability to extract clear 360-degree still photos from any moving video. It also comes complete with SmartTrack technology that can automatically follow any subject in frame, keeping that subject front and center at all times.
