VR has been steadily gaining popularity, especially with YouTube recently adding support for 360- degree video.

Meet the 360-degree VR recently launched on Kickstarter, the Sphericam 2, allowing photographers to easily capture high-quality 360-degree video.

The camera is about the size of a tennis ball, and has six built-in 4K lenses to capture 360-degree video at 60fps. Sphericam 2 will also have WiFi, allowing you to live stream video to desktop or mobile devices.

The device is the second iteration of Sphericam, with the first successfully launched on Kickstarter and shipped in 2013. Jeffrey Martin, the inventor of Sphericam, is a 360-degree photo guru and holds the world record for “Largest Panorama Photo,” which is a 320 gigapixel photo of London.

Sphericam 2 will retail for $1,499 but can be preordered now for a $200 discount via Kickstarter.
