Orah 4i live-streaming Prosumer VR camera from VideoStitc

orah02-edmeasures about 3.1 x 2.7 x 2.5 inches and weighs only 17 ounces

four fisheye 8-layer f2.0 lenses and four Sony Exmore image sensors.

four microphones in it for capturing four-channel "ambisonic" sound

captures and streams all of that video in 4k

anodized "precipitation-hardened" aluminum

requires you to attach it to what VideoStitch is calling a "Stitching Box," which is essentially a single-purpose computer dedicated to stitching together the 360 video. The box has an Intel CPU, an Nvidia GeForce GPU and an 120GB SSD. Also aboard are four USB 3.0 and two USB 2.0 ports, dual Gigabit LAN, WiFi 802.11 ac/b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0.

Will retail around $3,600, though the company is running a promotion right now where it's only $1,800.

Caveats;

-there is a 30-second delay in the ‘live’ stream

- not truly portable, because the Stitch Box requires a power source
