Garmin - NAB 2015

About

An interview from the 2015 National Association of Broadcasters Convention in Las Vegas with Bill Loud of Garmin, which creates superior products for automotive, aviation, marine, outdoor, and sports. In this interview Bill talks with us about their smart action cameras, the VIRB X & XE.

The VIRB XE action camera shoots rich, high-definition, wide-angle footage at 1080p60, 12 megapixel photos at up to 30 frames per second. The VIRB X action camera shoots rich, high-definition, wide-angle footage at 1080p30, 12 megapixel photos at up to 10 frames per second. Designed for the toughest environments, VIRB X & XE are able to dive to 50 meter depths without a case, allowing capture of cleaner and clearer audio. Powered by Garmin GPS, G-Metrix allows you to track and overlay how fast, how far, how high and how intense the moment truly was.

Connect one or more VIRB X or XE cameras to the Garmin VIRB Mobile App on your compatible smartphone or tablet. This gives you the ability to line up your shot with live video preview, control and view multiple cameras, playback and edit recorded footage, overlay G-Metrix data and push your videos to the cloud. VIRB X can even be controlled, configured and viewed from a compatible Garmin device.

A variety of versatile mounts let you firmly lock the camera in position. From curved, flat deck and dash mounts to handlebar, seatpost, helmet, chest and multi-use strap mounts, they have you covered. VIRB mounts feature professional, non-slip, Allen head tightening, allowing maximum torque for vibration/impact resistance.

The free VIRB Edit desktop app combines video footage from your VIRB action camera with GPS and other data from a compatible Garmin device. The result is a rich video experience that you can easily share and post online. If you collect GPS data with VIRB Elite or a compatible Garmin device, VIRB Edit can use that data to create an overlay that indicates speed, elevation and G-force in sync with your video. You can also add metrics, such as heart rate and cadence, from compatible devices by connecting to your VIRB via ANT+ wireless technology. This display adds meaningful context and helps reveal the true effort, heart-pounding suspense and thrill of each moment. When you're done, it's easy to publish your video directly to YouTube to share with friends and family. You can also export the video to your computer and post on sites such as Vimeo, Google+ and Facebook.
