Although many would agree that participating in [extreme sports](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/insta360-x5) is simply for the thrill, these activities are also appreciated for the awesome stories they make; with the Xperience Camera concept, adventure junkies around the world will be able to [capture the moment](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dji-osmo-nano) in a safe and convenient manner.

Designed by Emma Harris, the Xperience Camera concept looks deceptively like a watch. That timepiece-looking gadget actually acts as an LED screen that allows the user to view pictures taken. The Xperience Camera also comes with [two pods that attach to helmets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/argus-ar-helmet), backpacks and any other gear to actually take the photo. Picture-taking is controlled by the 'watch,' which is also equipped with built-in GPS as well as an altimeter that provides the exact location and time of each image taken.
