Acer at the IFA 2017 introduced two new 360-degree cameras powered by Snapdragon 625 and have 4G LTE support. The Acer Holo360 has a 3-inch touchscreen and lets you livestream 360-degree video, thanks to dual 16-megapixel lenses with Sony IMX298 sensor. It runs on Android 7.1 and lets you share 360-degree photos and videos directly to social networks and also preview them on the device.
The Acer Vision360 cloud-connected in-car camera has two ultra-high quality cameras working together to provide 360-degree coverage and offers 4K-quality video. “When an object collides with the vehicle when it is in motion; the device will trigger a recording that includes GPS coordinates of where the incident occurred, which is not only saved in a secure area on the device’s internal storage, but also uploaded to the cloud for evidence preservation,” said Acer.
