Hands-on with Liquid Image’s Ego Mini action cam at CES Unveiled
In SoMeIT (Social Media Information Technology), we are fully dedicated to satisfying all of your web needs, integrating your business to social networks.
GoPro ain’t the only name in the action camera game, and here at CES Unveiled we’ve just got a look at Liquid Image’s latest mountable cam — the Ego Mini. It shoots 1080p video at 30 fps or 720p at 60 fps, and is WiFi enabled, so you can livestream if hooked up to something with internet access. Obviously it’s pretty small and light (as well as waterproof), and we saw it nestled inside a motorbike helmet, and in various mount configurations like four cams pointing in all directions for 360-degree recording, and two side-by-side for 3D video. In camera mode, it can shoot 12-megapixel stills with a continuous photo-taking mode if you want something in-between full video recording. The Liquid Image app, which has just been released for iOS and will be making its way into the Google Play store at some point in the future, can pair with the cam and solicit the live video view, and can access data stored on the Ego Mini’s microSD card (up to 32GB supported), including uploading short clips to social networks. The app also works as a remote control for taking stills and will allow you to change settings on the camera. We saw the app in action briefly, and it worked as described, with only a little lag in the video stream, and pretty good image quality from what we could tell from the iPhone’s screen. Due to arrive in stores in August 2013, the Ego Mini is expected to cost $200. Check out the PR after the break for more info, and check out the gallery below for our hands-on pics. If you’re interested in a more integrated action cam, we also took a quick tour of Liquid Image’s Apex HD+ (or HD + WiFi depending on your source) snowsport goggles, which started shipping in November 2012.Gallery: Liquid Image Ego Mini, Apex HD+ Richard Lawler contributed to this report.Continue reading Hands-on with Liquid Image’s Ego Mini action cam at CES UnveiledFiled under: Cameras, Wearables, Wireless, HDComments
