The [GoPro](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gopro-lit-hero) HeroCast is a micro transmitter that could help make [live-streamed footage](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/live-switcher-mobile-app) more immersive and all-round amazing. This transmitter will make it easier than ever for broadcasters to incorporate [GoPro footage](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gopro-hero13-black-creator-edition) into their live products, allowing them to offering viewers unique and never-before-seen perspectives of the action, be it a crunching tackle on the football field or a palm sweat-inducing bungee jump.
