GoPro brings us another set of amazing features and products with their latest release (28/09/2017). The more 2x performance Hero6 along with features like 4K60 and advanced stabilization, better image quality, more fun with slow motion and introducing Touch Zoom. The major upgrade comes in the QuikStories which helps in making Story using the GoPro app which automatically edits the footage that has been sent to the phone from the Hero6 (upgrades to the sharing have also taken place).  The QuikStory creates an epic video with music and effects using GPS location, time stamps, faces, audio and accelerometers to make a well coordinated story line. #QuikStories is the hashtag to check out already created content.

The other beautiful thing that comes out is FUSION. It captures immersive 360° videos in 5.2K to play back as VR. As the saying goes FUSION - Relive Reality. This will bring us a step closer to reality in VR. Experiencing adventures in VR is a whole new feel and closeness one can get.

The launch of Fusion should make some amazing 360° videos that upload to Social media (Like Facebook, Youtube and others) an amazing experience as most current cameras on the market just capture HD or around that. The amazing experience with Fusion is, to forget pointing the camera at a particular direction and just spending the time experiencing the adventure. This freedom will help in producing some amazing videos. See the below video in 360°.

Middle Earth: Shadow of War, Friend or Foe

The epic live action trailer in itself is great as we get to see some amazing footages (Middle Earth Universe) but to drop an interactive trailer so as we get the message of where the story is moving towards, is downright genius. Down below is the Teaser for the Shadow of War, Friend or Foe.

The interactive part of the trailer is the choices that one makes; as nothing will be forgotten. One needs to go through the choices in the trailer to know what choices will be available during the game. We get the choice of choosing our Nemesis.
