GoPro Fusion VR Action Cam Shoots All Around You

GoPro Fusion

GoPro announced a dual lens action cam for shooting virtual reality (VR) called Fusion. The $700 camera shoots spherical audio and video by capturing everything around you. Its gimbal-like stabilization claims to be shockingly smooth.

Fusion is a spherical capture solution for innovative, envelope-pushing content creators. In addition to high performance spherical capture for fully immersive VR experiences, Fusion’s 5.2K resolution enables a new OverCapture creative solution that gives content creators the flexibility to produce conventional non-VR video and photos in HD-quality “punched out” from the spherically captured angles. Not just a VR capture solution, Fusion ensures that traditional content creators will get the shot, while also capturing the unexpected.

GoPro Fusion is ready for the elements and waterproof down to 16ft (5m). Hand-free mode makes it possible to start recording via simple voice commands. You can just say, “GoPro, start recording.”
