[motorcycle.com] - New Bell Star Helmet Unveiled With Built-In 360-Degree Camera
BRG Sports, parent company to Bell helmets, and 360fly, manufacturers of single-lens 360-degree action cameras, unveiled a full line of what they term “smart” helmets for the motorcycle, mountain bike and snow markets this week at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. We first reported about this partnership in December, but images of the final products weren’t available at the time. While we’re focusing on the new Bell Star road motorcycle helmet, all four helmets feature 360fly’s 360-degree, 4K camera built into the dome of the helmet, which is also capable of shooting conventional 16×9 video. The user can then edit and share content to their social media channels via 360fly’s proprietary mobile app. Among the camera’s features is a built-in GPS to tag locations, a barometer/altimeter and an accelerometer. The camera also comes standard with Bluetooth, built-in Wi-Fi and two hours of battery life. In addition, the camera is also detachable from the helmet, able to be used off the motorcycle as well. In addition to these technologies, several new technologies are in development with plans for inclusion. According to the BRG/360fly press release, these include:
360fly, Inc., maker of the world’s only, single-lens camera that captures stitchless 360-degree video with interactive and virtual reality viewing capabilities, today unveiled the next generation of its popular 360fly camera. The 360fly 4K is a water resistant single-lens, 360-degree video camera with live streaming capabilities and intuitive filming and editing advancements. It will be on display at the 2016 Consumer Electronic Show in Las Vegas in booth 10417 Central Hall. 360fly 4K adds a powerful new image sensor that quadruples the resolution of the first generation 360fly camera producing 2880×2880, 360-degree 4K quality. Additionally, 360fly 4K will offer the following upgraded and advanced features:
The majority of VR devices on the market today are purely focused on consumption of VR content and not creation. From day one, 360fly’s mission has been to put the power to create immersive personal VR content into the hands of consumers. This is enabled by 360fly’s proprietary single-lens, stitchless video technology, but also by its iOS and Android mobile app. Through the 360fly mobile app, users can easily shoot, edit and share content. There simply is no other comparable option for creating and consuming 360-degree immersive video and personal VR content on the market today. For professional, commercial or advanced users looking to live stream 360-degree video, 360fly 4K pairs with its Micro-HDMI accessory base (sold separately) and is able to output a real-time full 360-degree HD video stream – providing a truly differentiated live viewing experience. Like the original 360fly camera, 360fly 4K comes standard with Bluetooth, built-in Wi-Fi and has up two hours of battery life. Also carrying over is the camera’s ability to conveniently share video content direct from the 360fly mobile app to popular social platforms like Facebook and YouTube. 360fly 4K Specs Durability
