RICOH THETA
RICOH THETA is the world’s first mass-produced imaging device that encapsulates fully spherical scenes with one shot. The RICOH THETA features a proprietary ultra-small twin-lens folded optical system that captures the scene around, above and below the device in one shot for unprecedented, fully spherical images. Fitting easily in a pocket or the palm of a hand, the slim, lightweight (95-gram) RICOH THETA is a go-anywhere device suited to confined spaces, the great outdoors and everywhere in between.
The device is synchronized with smartphones, where images can be immediately transmitted via Wi-Fi and viewed with a dedicated free app. The app also allows images to be pinched, swiped or rotated to edit size, shape and composition. Images uploaded to theta360.com can be shared on social networks such as FacebookTM, TwitterTM and Tumblr, as well as Microsoft®’s Photosynth®. The RICOH THETA will be compatible with the iPhone 4S, iPhone 5 and iPhone 5S running on iOSTM 6.0 or above, and is supported by RICOH THETA for iPhone, a free iOS app available at App Store. AndroidTM compatibility is expected before the end of the year.
