The POV.HD video system is a new offering from V.I.O positioned as a
more professional-grade alternative to other film-through-hell helmet
cameras such as the GoPro HD or Drift Innovations HD170. Its two-ounce
IP67 certified camera sports a six-element glass lens and a native
1080p CMOS sensor that can capture a 142 degree field-of-view --
claimed to be the widest on the market -- in full HD at 30fps. The
head unit can also be adjusted to record 720p at 60fps with a 92
degree FOV for faster shots. A separate recording unit features Texas
Instruments' latest Da Vinci DM368 processor and supports a real-time
video pipeline while storing up to 4.3 hours of 1080p H.264 video
footage on a 32GB of SDHC. It's also equipped with a two-inch LCD
viewing screen with exposure and footage tagging controls. Priced at
$600, V.I.O is currently accepting pre-orders, which if made between
November 15th through December 17th, are guaranteed to arrive by
December 22nd -- just in time for your family's' homebrew holiday
response to Jackass.
