Insta360 Air realtime stabilization demo and firmware upgrade tutorial

Image
Realtime stabilization has now been added Insta360 Air, the first 360 camera for Android phones.  Here's a demo and a tutorial for upgrading the firmware required this feature. Here's the demo video and tutorial: HOW TO INSTALL Before you begin, here are two tips for installation: 1. When connecting the Insta360 Air to your phone, connect the Air directly and not through an adapter.  This will minimize the chance for errors. After installing, you can go back to using the adapter. 2. You'll be inserting and reinserting the Air a lot.  To avoid smearing the lens, you can put the Insta360 Air in its silicone rubber case upside down.  You'll still be able to insert it into your phone. Here are the steps. 1.  Install the Insta360 Air app version 1.4 or above on your smartphone. As of April 27, version 1.4 is still not live on Google Play Store but you can download the beta version from Insta360.com.  Use your phone to go to Insta360.com .  On the upper lef...

Cat360 can live stream wirelessly in 4k for four hours, without a phone

CatEyes Cat360 is a 360 camera that can live stream in 4K for four hours ! Cat360 is a 360 camera designed for endurance.  It has a built-in fan and has vents on two sides to allow air to flow through to dissipate heat.  This unique design allows it to operate longer than other 360 cameras. My friends at Rec360.ru tested Cat360's live streaming endurance, and when the Cat360 is plugged into a USB adapter, they found that the Cat360 can live stream in 4K for four hours!  With a battery only (unplugged from an adapter), it can record in 4K for 40 minutes. The fan does create some noise, but the Cat360 has another rare feature for 360 cameras: a 3.5mm microphone input, which allows you to use an external microphone.  The mic input is on the bottom of the camera, so it won't be captured in the video. Another unusual feature of the Cat360 is that it can connect to a Wi-Fi signal and live stream without a phone connected.  The user does use a phone to setup the conne...

Housekeeping announcements: 360 camera Facebook discussion group, 360Rumors.com, and 360 Rumors store

Image
Just a few announcements: 1. 360Rumors.com launch 360Rumors.com  is now live!  It features a more polished and more organized interface.  I think the search feature works better as well. I wasn't able to implement redirection so I'll just run the original 360rumors.blogspot.com and the new 360rumors.com in parallel for now, although 360rumors.com will be the primary site and eventually I will stop updating 360rumors.blogspot.com. 2.  Forum for 360 cameras and for 360 Rumors readers: There are a number of Facebook groups for particular 360 cameras or particular brands.  If you want to discuss 360 cameras and are tired of jumping from one group to another, I created a Facebook group to discuss 360 cameras of any type, any brand, cleverly called the 360 Cameras Group.  This is also a forum for readers of 360 Rumors.   Check it out here ! 3.  360 Rumors store is open! If you want to buy a camera or accessory and want to support 360 Rumors, you can che...
