You take this "ball" and throw it as high as you can.

It takes multiple shots at the peak of the throw and then software stitches them together to make a 360+ aerial...

What will they think of next?

So, I guess the next thing is to see who can throw the highest...

I think I could make it 40 ft.. at least once.

Actually, after I posted my "I wonder what they'll think of next" question, I thought wow the sports folks would have use for a "baseball cam", a "football cam", a "basketball cam", etc. I think the hockey puck cam is going to take a bit of miniaturizing before that becomes a reality.
