Press Play. Click and drag around the video. Incredible.

A variant of the yellowBird camera is being utilized within the Google Streetview technology. The prominent difference is that the yellowBird camera records video instead of photographs. The camera uses six cleverly divided lenses in order to capture every possible viewing direction. The data stream generated by the camera is impressive.

Next to the camera, a surround sound microphone system enables to record audio at 96 khz as well.
