Dot Com Pho – 360 Degrees of Freedom Edition

written by John Chow on January 29, 2012

At yesterday’s Dot Com Pho Orange County, Jeff Hester of Big Blue Ball showed off the Kogeto Dot. The Dot is pocket-friendly 360 degree panoramic video attachment for the Apple iPhone 4 and 4S.

The Dot’s iCONIC lens works with the iPhone 4′s HD video camera to capture full 360 degree video – all at once – without stitching frames together. Using the free Looker app available in the App Store and on iTunes, you can film and instantly share 360 degree panoramic video on Facebook, Twitter, and other social platforms. You can even embed the video in a blog post.

You can view the Kogeto Dot Com Pho video below. Put your mouse on the video and you’ll be able spin around the 360 degree environment. The Kogeto Dot retails for $79.95. However, the blue ball is giving one away later this month, so check out his blog for the contest. In the mean time, let me know what you think of the video.

That is really cool! I will have to take a look at it. I have an iPhone 4. Will the picture quality be lower than the 4S? I’m assuming that was filmed with a 4S.

John Chow January 29, 2012 at 3:09 pm: I am not really sure if that was taken with a 4 or 4S. I will ask Jeff and find out.

Too bad it doesn’t work with the iTouch.

John Chow January 29, 2012 at 4:59 pm: @zeus If the product does well, I’m sure they’ll be make the lens available for other iProducts. Hell, they might even make an Android version. lol
