When it rains, it pours:

• Nikon has announced the 360º KeyMission. Check out the sample vids.
• GoPro has confirmed that it’s working on something similar. Looks like it’ll be able to capture stuff like this.
• Movi lets you put a camera on a stick, then direct its focus in realtime (while streaming live) via an iPhone. Neat, but I’m not entirely clear on what problem it’s solving.
• In a slightly similar vein, Kiba purports to let you just put the camera in a fixed place, then let it shoot & edit your family videos.
• The Vuze VR camera purports to shoot not only 360º coverage, but depth as well.
