Xiaomi Launches Two 360 Degree Cameras; Partners With Google

While Yi Halo is mainly for professional users, the Yi 360 VR targets the end-consumers.

 

Xiaomi’s Yi Technology has now announced the launch of two new cameras dubbed as Yi Halo and Yi 360 VR, both meant for virtual reality purposes, for professional users and consumers respectively.

Speaking about the two new cameras, let us first see what Yi Halo is all about and also the main difference between Yi Halo and Yi 360 VR. Apparently, Yi Halo features 17 camera units and users can use them to create VR content. It is also being said that the Yi Halo’s camera units have been developed to work with Google’s Jump professional virtual reality platform.

Yi Halo also features various image quality settings including ISO, WB, EV, shutter, and flat color. It is also capable of shooting videos in 8K resolution at 30 fps and 5K resolution at 60 fps.

Under the hood, the camera is powered by an 18 Ambarella A9SE75 processor while users also get a 2.2 inch LCD Screen. The camera can also be controlled with an Android smartphone app.

On the other hand, the Yi 360 VR is for the end-consumers, and is capable of recording videos in 5.7K resolution at 30 fps. This is definitely light in weight and pretty much portable when compared to the Yi Halo, as we can see from both the images.

The  camera is powered by Ambarella H2V95 chipset and feature two 12 MP Sony CMOS IMX377 sensors. It also supports WiFi, HDMI, USB Type C, micro SD Card, while it can be operated via a smartphone app as well.

Both these cameras has been priced at around $ 16,999 (roughly Rs 10,93,000) and $399 (roughly Rs 25,600), and will be available for purchase by June this year.
