Panono Camera Ball is an imaging device that has a sphere shape with a diameter of 11 cm and a weight of only 300 g. External material made of plastic but actually inside of it consists of a total of 36 cameras that will take pictures at the same time when we throw it up in the sky. And it will has a software to take an images connect them together form a panorama 108 megapixel image, it will not only can view the images on the left right but also top and bottom too.

And will sell out around 2015.
Major Concepts
- The camera is easy and fun to use which is by just throwing it up in the sky.
- The images that come out will be like panorama but more more special that we it's 360 degree.
Advantages
- Throw able which makes the user having fun when taking the image.It will be so fun taking picture with friends 360 degrees.
- How to get an image is suitable for world now aday by using application on phone.
- Price not so expensive compare to other normal camera which is about 550 US Dollar or around 18000 Thai Baht .
Disadvantages
- By throwing it up in the sky what if we can't catch it and drop on the floor ,plastic might be easy to break. And can the water gets in if we accidentally drop it in the water.
- From the sphere shape it's going to a little bit hard to maintain it like other camera because if we put it on the table its going to roll around fall to somewhere.
Discussion Question
- I think this Camera ball will be so popular for sure after it releases to the world but after that about a year its rating will drop down because it's not that interesting and something completely new and normal people who don't have a jobs or things relate to this won't be using it. Most of it will only popular in adults ages because i don't think people around 30 up will walk around on the street and tossing this ball up in the sky .
- When taking a picture i don't think everyone are going replace this in their bag instead of normal camera because people still wont with normal camera and their phone also can take a picture too.
