# Remote Control Video Robots The 360 Camera Dolly Lets You Capture Video Remotely By Rahul Kalvapalle | Published 2016-06-10 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/camera-dolly References: [gizmag](http://www.gizmag.com/double-robotics-360-camera-dolly/43602/) & [doublerobotics](http://www.doublerobotics.com) The 360 Camera Dolly is a wonderfully designed and engineered contraption that is the latest in an increasingly growing and rapidly expanding collection of video-equipped robots offered up by [Double Robotics](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/little-kitty-big-city-game). This camera dolly makes use of the same technology applied in Double Robotics' tele-presence robots. It makes it possible for the user to exercise remote control capabilities using an [iPhone 6](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smartphone-filter-kit) or indeed an [iPod Touch](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ppsspp-ios). It comes with a companion camera mount that is crafted out of aircraft-grade aluminum. The biggest advantage with the 360 Camera Dolly has to do with the fact that it makes it entirely possible for video to be easily shot without having to go to great lengths to ensure that crew members don't appear in any of the shots. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.3/10 - Popularity: 28% | Activity: 33% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Robots](https://www.trendhunter.com/robots) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Tele-presence Robots:** Opportunity to develop advanced tele-presence robots for remote control capabilities using smartphones. - **360 Camera Technology:** Potential for innovation in the field of 360 camera technology to capture video remotely. - **Aircraft-grade Aluminum:** Disruptive innovation possibilities in using aircraft-grade aluminum in companion camera mounts for enhanced durability. ### Who This Affects Most - **Film and Video Production:** Opportunity to enhance video production by incorporating tele-presence robots for remote filming. - **Robotics:** Potential growth in the robotics industry by developing advanced tele-presence robots for various applications. - **Camera Equipment Manufacturing:** Innovative opportunities in creating camera mounts using aircraft-grade aluminum for increased strength and reliability. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Powered Cinematic Equipment Dollies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cinema-dolly.md) - [Powered Photography Sliders](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/motorized-dolly.md) - [Motorized Dolly Cameras](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rhino-dolly.md) - [Machined Aluminum Smartphone Dollies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sandmarc-motion-dolly.md) - [360-Degree Photography Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/miops-capsule-pro.md) - [360-Degree Active Tracking Gimbals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dji-osmo-mobile-8.md) - [Rolling Pet Connectivity Robots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/freshrobot-rollbot.md) - [Motion-Tracking Smartphone Tripods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/insta360-flow.md) - [Flexible Videographer Camera Gimbals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dji-ronin-4d-flex.md)
