Earlier this month, Recon Instruments released a new app for skiers and snowboarders that allows you to control your GoPro HERO4 camera remotely—and to access a real-time viewfinder—using snow goggles like Oakley’s Airwave 1.5, which are equipped with Recon’s Snow2 heads-up display.
There is only so much room on your handlebars for gadgets–lights, bike computer, and action camera all fighting for prime real estate. To help streamline your growing pile of accessories, Joby created the Action Bike Mount that accommodates multiple devices on a single platform, including lights for added visibility.
While GoPro cameras are great, one slightly annoying feature is having to remove the camera from its housing in order to change or recharge batteries. The new Mota device solves this problem by using wireless charging technology to recharge the action camera’s battery with it still secure in the housing–not to mention charge a spare battery at the same time.
In preparation for the upcoming holiday season, GoPro not only drops the price of their user-friendly Hero4 Session but also introduces a new basic but well-connected action camera in the Hero+. At $199.99, the Hero+ adds wireless connectivity and improved specs for around $70 more than the existing Hero.
You know the feeling–you captured that awesome timelapse on your GoPro the first night out but in the process, ate up all your memory. Or you just completed a huge photo shoot and can’t wait to get out of the backcountry to backup, organize, edit, and share. Well, a new device called the Gnarbox let’s you now do all that from the field.
Looks like the rumors of GoPro coming out with a Polaroid Cube killer were true. Yesterday, the company announced the latest camera in their Hero lineup–the cube shaped Hero4 Session. The smallest and lightest camera GoPro has produced to date, the Session comes complete in a simple, easy to use package. I expect this one to appeal more to the masses than the other Hero4 action cameras.
