Host how does this unit know that you have a flat tire . How does it sense that . Guest its a specific connector. Information is [inaudible] from the car. The car can say that, it cant push some information. We grab the information throughout the connector and bring it to the driver.

Android auto is exactly the same way, it works in exactly the same way as the apple car play host heres the android doing. This is the nexus 5.

Guest technically, yes. Everything is possible. Host benjamin sebag with parrot, thank you very much. Guest yes, no problem. Host well, here at the ces International Show in las vegas, one of the buzzedabout booths is the gopro booth. And joining us now at the booth is kelly leggoe of gopro. What is gopro . Guest gopro is an amazing, small, wearable camera. Host how was it developed . Who developed it . Guest it was founded by nick woodman who is the ceo and founder, and he thought of this amazing idea when he was surfing in indonesia with some friends because he wanted to take pictures of he and his friends surfing, and it just kind of evolved. Host cameras are kind of old school, arent they . With cell phones and everything . Guest yeah, well, cell phones are more reactive. These are more proactive so if you want to plan on something that youre interested in, like actually getting great, quality footage, you can plan your shots. Host kelly leg go, were looking at in this very small camera. Is this hd . Whats 2 technology . Guest so this is the hero 4. We have two different models, we have the ability to shoot at 4k30 and [inaudible] which is incredible for such a small camera. And this camera is the hero 4 silver which has the ability to shoot at 4k15, so still amazing quality, but it also has the integrated lcd screen so for the first time in the history you can frame up your shot and review your footage directly from the camera. Host so this takes still and video . Guest ye. Host and how does everything in here get to the tv screens . Guest well, theres a few different ways. So we actually have a gopro app which you can use from the why fife directly from your wifi direct hi there your camera, you can directly offload and control, you also have a go item pro studio so if you connect the card into your exciter, you can directly off load into our studio where you can capture, create and share. Host well, now here at your display you have a dog wearing a camera and a little kid wearing a camera. Guest yeah. Its the worlds most versatile camera. You can strap it to the handlebars of your bike, to the dog, you can strap it to your child with a junior chesty. Host and whats the quality of the video here . We have got this big camera that were shooting some of this display with. How does it compare to our broadcast camera . Guest its great. Its pretty comparable. Like i said, it can shoot 4k30 so breathtaking footage. I go to a local distributer so whether that be a target or a walmart or my favorite mom and pop shop i buy it i go on the mountain, im like oh man, i want some great shots, so i go home two to the studio to make an ed fit and share it on my edit and share it on my personal media. Host and heres the software. Guest basically, you take your content es directly from your camera and you can edit and trim and convert your clips all in the studio and then create a comprehensive edit through the easytouse interface. Weve also tried to make it as easy as possible for our users so weve created gopro studio template which are preedited templates where you can drag and drop your footage. Host first of all, whats your background . Guest before gopro, i was working for a Software Company acquired by gopro in 2011, and part of that acquisition was to help develop an editing solution for more gopro camera users. So weve spent the last few years making gopro Studio Software and this host and this is it that were looking at here. It looks awfully complicated. Guest its not. Its on a very big screen, its on a 4k display. Its pretty easy. We try to make it very easy and when you first launch it, les a tutorial that kind of walks you through what to do. Basically, here in step one this is where you, like, go through your footage, pick out the parts that you like. If you like a section, you add it to this conversion list over here, and then you convert all the file into the gopro. Once youve done that, the trimmed versions show up over here. Now instead of these big, long recordings that you recorded many your camera youve got just little highlights, the parking lots you actually like. From the parts you actually like. You drag each one down into the storyboard in the order youd like them to play out. Weve got an instagram style preset. This is all happening nondestructively. Its not applying it to the clips permanently. You can always go back to your original settings. Click reset or clicking host how much video can that little camera that kelly was showing us hold . Oh, there she is. Guest shooting at an hd resolution at 30 frames per second, so with a 32 gigabyte card itll hold about four hours worth of content. If youre shooting in one of higher resolutions, itll shorten the amount a little bit. Basically, 32 gigabytes hd, 1080p30 is four hours. Disprs and the editing suite comes with the camera . Guest its actually a Free Download at gopro. Com. Anybody can download it. It works with gopro cameras as well as cannon and knew con as well as many random cameras. If youve got a camera that shoots in that format, you can try gopro studio it might work. Host kelly leggoe, this might be a question for you or jake, im not sure but why wasnt this done before . Guest why was host why wasnt this invented before . Guest i think a lot of people wanted to use it, but they never found the right parts or never found that specific [inaudible] so when nick found it, he ran with it. He worked extremely hard to get it put together and here it is today. Host gopro is one of the buzzedabout booths here at the ces International Show. So another Foreign Company thats exhibiting here at ces international is huawei out of china. Jack borg is with huawei. First of all what do you do with this company and where are you based in.
