The Dot™ project started as a very successful Kickstarter project and spiraled out from there. After getting over six times their initial funding goal, the Kogeto company was sure they were onto something that was going to be in high demand and indeed they are!
Kogeto’s compact and durable iCONIC lens works with the iPhone 4 / 4S HD video camera to capture full 360° video — all at once — without stitching frames together. Our unique catadioptric optical system is fully AR-coated for excellent color fidelity in all environments. Dot is a lightweight attachment that doesn’t require batteries or external power.
Dot™ lets you email your panoramic videos that they call Dotspots directly to a friend or upload them to Facebook and Twitter as well as a service aptly called Dotspots which serves as the world’s first-ever panoramic video sharing platform.
