Antigravity unveils ‘world first’ 360-degree camera drone
Insta360 announced last month of the drone brand, teasing that its first product would be the “first” consumption drone in the world with an integrated 360 -degree video capture. Now antigravity has unveiled said drone: antigravity A1.
The new Insta Drone brand teases a 360 -degree drone world degree in 360 degree drone
As revealed in July, the A1 antigravity will record a 360 -degree video in resolution 8K, weighing 249 g and will be able to detect the useful charges to prevent it from being used for purposes other than shooting. Today, antigravity has shared more details, as well as the first images of the A1.

As indicated by its light weight, the antigravity indicates that the A1 will be a compact drone, with released images demonstrating that its rotor arms will fold perfectly for storage or journey. Antigravity has also confirmed that the A1 double -objective camera system reflects that found in the X series of 360 cameras of Insta360. The two objectives of the A1 will be mounted at the top and bottom of the drone fuselage, with the images then sewn together so that the drone does not appear in the resulting 360 images.

Interestingly, antigravity has also revealed that the A1 completely avoids stick controls, adopting a new approach to its piloting system. Drones are generally controlled using stick orders, users piloting them with two thumb joysticks on a remote control.
Instead, A1 antigravity controls seem similar to those used by virtual reality headsets. The A1 will be controlled using the portable handle controller from Antigravity, its factor in a stick in a stick with a rear trigger bearing a strong similarity with VR controllers such as the Meta Quest Touch Pro. This will be associated with antigravity vision glasses, which users will wear when piloting the A1.

Antigravity states that head tracking technology will allow users to look around anyway, while theft will be controlled by hand gestures. They will therefore be able to look in one direction while flying in another, rather than having to pivot to see what surrounds them. The company stressed that it designs its drones to be intuitive to operate, so that they can be used by all, from beginners to experts.

Antigravity A1 should be released in January 2026, so it will be a few months before most people can get their hands on it. However, antigravity will send several pre-production models to test certain users, with their comments to integrate into the final version of the drone. The contributors will also have a chance for the part of the $ 20,000 reward basin in Antigravity, in the event that testing the A1 has not been sufficiently incentive. Applications are open to the company’s website now.
