Amplify your extreme sports experience with Blast ActionCam. By combining the Blast precision motion sensor with your GoPro ® action camera, you can now capture your action metrics (acceleration, vertical height, rotation, and hang time) and overlay them on top of dynamically created video highlights to experience your most heroic moments in a whole new way. You’ll never look at your action videos the same again! The Blast Precision Motion Sensor attaches to your action camera housing or waistband and uses Bluetooth® Smart technology to connect to your smartphone or tablet. There’s no need to alter your actions or do anything out of the ordinary, and there are no power buttons or controls to get in your way. The Blast precision motion sensor knows when you’re moving and dynamically powers-up the sensor and engages the patented motion detection algorithms to capture your important 3D action metrics in real-time. (ActionCam is currently optimized for skateboarding and BMX, with more sports coming soon..
