By Ross Semple
Want to add some height to your selfies? Then we’ve got a treat for you.
Introducing AirSelfie, the first pocket-sized flying camera that integrates with smartphones. The stylish drone allows users to capture the perfect selfie from angles never before possible and is set to raise the selfie game nationwide in 2017.
Comprised of four powerful propellers and a 5-megapixel video camera, AirSelfie is smaller than a smartphone and can fly vertically up to 66 feet, allowing users to take aerial selfies of themselves and their friends.
The device connects to the most popular smartphones, including iPhone (6, 6s, 7 and 7 Plus), Google Pixel and Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge. The device includes self-generated WiFi and comes equipped with a rechargeable battery through a cell phone case, as well as the option to purchase an external power bank. Additionally, a vibration-absorber system and in-flight stability systems guarantee stable, clear, flowing images.
With AirSelfie, users can take group selfies and family photos from up to 66 feet away, capturing both people and panoramas; take indoor and outdoor aerial photos of subjects and locations that would otherwise be unreachable (e.g. monuments and stadiums during sporting events; and take videos from perspectives that were formerly impossible.
AirSelfie’s technology integrates directly with social media, making it easy to post photos and videos directly to users’ accounts.
The device comes equipped with 4 GB micro SD memory card and a 260mAh 7.4v battery that enables three minutes of flight time.
AirSelfie is now available to pre-order in the UK following a successful Kickstarter campaign that drew backers from all over the world.
You can pre-order AirSelfie on the official website. There are two available package: AirSelfie + phone cover (£220) or AirSelfie and powerbank (£229).
