Posted on by

SLOPES-for-Gopro

Slopes for GoPro is a cool little stand that gives you exactly what its name implies: a panoply of slopes with which to angle your GoPro for the best possible shot.

“SLOPES” is the world’s first polyhedron support for Gopro. Thanks for its polyhedron bottom and 3-in-1 slot, “SLOPES” provides 20 different ways to put your Gopro, with a body even smaller than a Gopro housing. No tripod is needed any longer.

It’s a really handy trick up the sleeve of any aspiring action cam enthusiast, and at $21 is cheap enough to toss in a bag and carry around with you everywhere. Funding is complete, and Slopes should ship in December of this year.

Graava Edits Your Life’s Footage, Because Editing Is Hard, Yo

Posted on by

graavas-1

There are those who like to slap an action cam on their body and simply go around recording everything. While it’s a nice thought, this idea of recording your life, it’s also one that requires a lot of work if you wish to make the final footage even remotely interesting. You have to edit this stuff, cut out the boring parts! Well… if Graava works as advertised, you may not have to. Using data from an accelerometer, an optional heart rate monitor, a light sensor, and a sophisticated algorithm, Graava will select the “best” scenes and edit them together automatically; you just have to tell it how long the final footage should be. The companion apps do give you the ability to select scenes the algorithm might have missed, as well as the option to control and fine tune all the camera’s settings. The device is waterproof to the IP67 rating, and the battery will last about 3 hours. If you want yours, it’ll be a $249 pre-order now, instead of the $399 retail price that becomes active on September 1st. Shipping is expected for Q1 2016.

Wanna See What The Fish Looks Like As He’s About To Eat Your Bait? Now You Can With The GoFish Cam

Posted on by

GoFish-Cam-image-2-672x372

It’s a good time to be an action cam, so much so that manufacturers have started exploring which realms aren’t already ripe for capture. GoPros and the like are great for recording anything that happens to you, but what if you’re really curious to see how your fish react to the bait at the end of your fishing line? The GoFish cam was designed specifically to be attached securely to a fishing line, providing you with 1080p footage of the underwater action. A tough waterproof casing allows it to go down to 150m, and infrared lights make it possible to still see what happens even in low-light conditions. The rest of the features are much like standard actions cams of today, so it’s really that underwater, line-locking ability you’ll be spending $149 for. It’s being Kickstarted at the moment, so you’ll have to wait until March of next year for yours if the fancy takes you.
