360fly is a pioneer in the realm of 360-degree digital products, aiming to revolutionize video capture by allowing users to experience life in its entirety. With roots in the robotics lab at Carnegie Mellon University, the company has seamlessly translated technology originally conceived for robotic applications into consumer electronics. Noteworthy achievements include the launch of the world's first consumer 360º lens for iPhone, the GoPano Micro, and an accompanying 360º video sharing platform, GoPano.com.
Founded in 1998, 360fly operates at the intersection of Consumer Electronics and Media. Its evolutionary journey progressed into the creation of the 360fly camera, designed to capture everything in all directions without constraints. In May 2016, the company secured a $40.00M Series C investment from prestigious investors including L Catterton, Qualcomm Ventures, and Hydra.
This investment positions 360fly well for future expansion, particularly as interest in immersive media continues to grow.
