Insta360's Antigravity A1 announced as world's first 360 drone

Insta360 just announced the Antigravity A1, and they're calling it the world's first drone with built-in 8K 360 capture. This thing is designed to completely change how we think about drone footage, with some pretty wild tech that makes the drone itself disappear from videos. This article will discuss everything about the latest Insta360 Antigravity A1, including rumours, specifications, and availability.

Insta360 Antigravity A1 Overview

360 Capture and Invisible Drone Tech

The standout feature here is the dual-lens system that captures everything around the drone in 8K resolution. Where it gets clever is the fact that their advanced stitching technology makes the drone completely invisible in the footage. So you're essentially getting floating camera shots that look impossible.

You can reframe your shots after recording, export in any aspect ratio, and even apply effects like Tiny Planet. It's basically giving you infinite camera angles from a single flight.

Flight Control and Immersive Experience

They've developed something called FreeMotion technology that works with Vision goggles and a Grip controller. The idea is you can look in one direction while flying in another. The live view comes with head tracking, so you're getting an experience that's more like VR than traditional drone flying.

The controls are designed to be intuitive with point-to-fly functionality. From where we're getting, this seems aimed at creators who want cinematic shots without needing pilot skills.

Design and Portability

At 249g, the Antigravity A1 sits just under most registration thresholds. It is designed to be compact and travel-friendly, so you won't need a separate bag just for your drone. They've included safety features like return-to-home and payload detection.

Creator Co-Development Program
