my name is soon Park founder of I camper and creator of the sad camp in 2009 my family and I hit the road and covered 58,000 miles all across North America over three years I was traveling with my wife and two daughters and we weren't satisfied with the comfort of a traditional tent or the time to pitch it we settled on a pop-up trailer but it was a drag and a pain to set up after going back home I found it I camper and after many tests prototypes and improvement on our previous three models my team and I are proud to have found the answer introducing the sky camp the world's first

this project and help travelers around the world grow closer to people and nature mmmm ok e and you you Oh every once in a while a revolutionary product comes along that changes everything I'd like you to meet the bubble here a problem the market that I saw was that spherical technology was only being used for the mapping you can probably use it for some other things like panoramic photos and filmmaking interactive videos which side of the pond ourselves to make something special the bubble cam doesn't just capture photos or videos but also streams live videos we want to make this technology affordable small sort portable and available to everything people are accustomed to shooting panoramas with their mobile phone there's a problem with that it's inherently at a sync with the bubble can you press the button once and boom you've got your photos your video and you pop it in our software you can look all around it's amazing we've designed the camera in a tetrahedral orientation Center there no blind spots because each camera overlaps the joining camera no other camera that we've seen on the market is able to handle that as well as put it in a form factor that's the size of a baseball that's light portable and easy to move around a few in any environment that you want to record with bubbles patent-pending tetrahedral design you'll get 14 megapixel photos h.264 video capturing 1080p at 15 frames per second in 720p at 30 frames per second wife I live streaming a microSD slot and USB stream I really think people are going to want to buy the bubble camera just because of the ability to shoot in many different directions the fact is it takes in all views in real time whether it be security and surveillance action sports gaming real estate teleconferencing I really do think the opportunities are endless with bubbles SDK an API our goal is to allow people to experiment and explore with this new technology we've seen it used in music videos before with the black eye peas back we've seen the commercial used for ikea and budweiser one most exciting things that I'm looking forward to seeing how filmmakers are going to be using 360 video it's a whole new way to shoot things and create interactive experiences and a new way of telling story body-mind change is a co-production between tip and the CSP media lab we can start to figure out what we can do it and I'm really excited about the insulation work the video work the interactive work is that you can do a technology like this we've designed a bubble chem to be ready and available to everyone you're gonna have to make a choice sometimes you want that straight on shot that one angle but they're going to be moments where you want to see everything with your help we're
