Question from Carl S.: Hi Rick. Here’s a question that you probably haven’t received before, and I hope you can answer it for me.
I have a cabin up in the mountains and I spend a lot of time there. The cabin has Internet through Hughesnet but there’s no cell service up there at all.

Because the camera follows the wearer’s natural point of view, the resulting footage can feel immediate and personal. [Read more…]
