360 Camera - best digital camera idea
February 15, 2006 | Digital Cameras
The 360 Camera, a concept by Cedric Tay, lets you take a panoramic picture. Simply hold the camera with one hand, without need for aim or balance, and take an all-round picture. An angle indicator provides a gauge on the direction of the rotating head and is also an additional detail to provide the camera with a stronger and steadier feel while in operation. A built-in inclinometer indicates the horizontality of position prior to execution. The 360 is designed with much emphasis on the user interface, with the main operating function designed as a touch sensor, thereby maintaining a flushed surface on the exterior. A great idea! Now you can make your own panoramic postcards and capture entire views in one picture.
