New Drone Lets You Fly by Turning Your Head
4 Dec
Summary
- New drone uses head-tracking and motion controls for intuitive flight.
- Drone records in all directions, allowing post-flight video rotation.
- Priced at $1,599, it competes with DJI drones but offers unique features.
The Antigravity A1 drone has launched in the United States, arriving as a potential alternative amidst import ban concerns for DJI. This innovative drone and headset combination is designed for an entirely new approach to aerial filming.
Its standout feature is a 360-degree camera paired with motion-sensing goggles. Users can direct the drone simply by looking and moving their arm, freeing their head to experience the surroundings. The simultaneous recording in all directions enables dynamic post-flight editing, allowing users to rotate and zoom within their footage.
While priced at $1,599, the Antigravity A1 is positioned as more than just a DJI alternative. Its unique head-controlled flight and immersive recording capabilities set it apart, even as DJI's own 360-degree drone, the Avata 360, gains FCC clearance.
