Friday 10.14.2011 , Posted by Benjamin Starr

It’s just a simple toss to a full panoramic photo with this yet to be released ball camera.
Determined with a built in accelerometer, the super cool images (including an image of the thrower/photographer) are captured at the peak of its flight giving an aerial view of the world. The devise uses 36 mobile phone cameras to take the image at one instant, making capturing moving objects a possibility not seen in many other panoramic methods.
