Garmin’s new Virb 360 action camera can record immersive videos that are stitched together to create a 360-degree view. The camera also produces stitched-together 15-megapixel spherical photos, and it captures video at up to 5.7K at 30 fps and has four microphones for multi-directional audio recording. Spherical stabilization ensures a smooth result.

To cut down on redundant footage, the Travelapse feature generates highlights from hours of video. The $799 camera has a built-in GPS receiver and Garmin’s G-Metrix data overlays. For easier operation, the Virb 360 offers voice control for starting and stopping recording, taking photos and other functions. Livestream capability is built in, for posting live video to YouTube or Facebook Live when interfaced with a compatible mobile device.
