Cutting Edge Tech for Everyone
The bubl is the world’s most innovative 360º camera, inside and out. Using leading-edge innovation and spherical camera technology, the bubl allows you to completely document your world like never before though panoramic photos and videos. The unprecedented tetrahedral design features four 190º lenses which overlap to capture everything inside your bubble. It’s even small enough to fit in the palm of your hand.
Tech Specs
VIDEO RECORDING
The bubl records at 30 fps at 720p or 15 fps at 1080p and exports in MP4 format. It records a multiplexed 4-image quad video that can be dynamically blended (our stitching process) or converted into an equirectangular (panoramic) video.
PANORAMIC PHOTOS
Photos are captured at full resolution (3840 X 3840) as a 14 megapixel multiplexed photo and exported as a JPEG. This can be blended dynamically or converted into an equirectangular (panoramic) image.
OPTICS & SENSOR
The bubl utilizes four 190º, 1.6 megapixel lenses. The OmniVision sensor captures 5 megapixels and performs well under low lighting conditions. The sensor will also allow you to set gamma, contrast, gain, brightness and saturation.
MEDIA STORAGE
Store up to 32GB of media directly to the MicroSD card. The bubl currently records 1mb per second. You can also record via USB 2.0 connection or record your live stream using VLC.
WIRELESS STREAMING
The internal Wi-Fi unit allows you to live stream your video to a PC or mobile phone. You can use the bublApp, VLC or QuickTime to view your multiplex stream.
AUDIO RECORDING
The bubl records audio in MP3 format and it is encoded directly into the exported MP4 video.

Powerful Software
The true innovation of the bubl is its software that allows for a single, 4 quadrant multiplexed image to be stitched into a sphere. We utilize a unique, heat-mapped blending process in order to merge the final photos and videos. These are what we like to call digital bubls. Bubls can also be separated from the multiplex into individual photos or videos and stitched into standard equirectangular (panoramic) format. This allows for spherical development and playback from other applications like Video-Stitch and Kolor products.
Unrivaled Players
Our bubl players provide an in-video experience unlike any other. They have been uniquely developed to allow viewers to look up, down and all around them, creating their own individual experiences within the footage. It also provides users with imaging controls in order to easily adjust brightness, contrast, saturation and zoom. Currently developed for desktop, desktop browser, iOS and Android devices (beta), our development schedule also includes WebGL which will be released in the very near future.
Upload and Share Through the Cloud
We’re planning on connecting our bubl player software to all of your favorite cloud storage services. Upload your photos and videos to DropBox, Google Drive and Younity and share them directly from inside the bubl apps.
