But, OZO is tagged with a hefty price tag of $60,000 which is very discouraging and to encourage sales, it is considering having a drop in its price. It has lowered its price from $60,000 to $45,000.
The Ozo is a professional camera used for Virtual Reality has eight lenses in it which records complete spherical footage. There are eight microphones that also record and also recreate the sounds. Nokia has already tested the Ozo’s capabilities by capturing VR video of astronauts in an immersion pool base in NASA. The camera is all set to capture the aerial footage when connected to a drone.
Ramzi Haidamus who is the president of Nokia Technologies said that OZO actually enabled the immersive experience more creative and through Ozo one can enjoy the present moment. This technology has moved us deeply and now it will move us forward.
