A CMRA Camera for the Apple Watch

Print

Customers want to add the capabilities of the first Galaxy Gear to the Apple Watch? Glide has a solution with the CMRA, a band providing a pair of cameras for use with the Apple smartwatch.

CMRA BandRevealed at CES 2017, the CMRA band has an 8MP outwards-facing camera and a 2MP front-facing shooter. Taking a photo simply requires tapping a built-in button, while a long press starts recording video. A double-tap allows users to switch between cameras, and integration with the stock Photos app ensures easy storage, editing and sharing of moments captured with the band.

Glide adds the cameras include tilt-balancing, lens correction, noise reduction and pixel optimisation for the best possible photos, as well as 8GB of onboard flash storage. One can also use the CMRA with the iPhone and Watch chat app for Dick Tracy-style wrist-based videoconferencing or sending of pre-recording video messages. Connectivity with Watch and/or iPhone comes through Bluetooth and wifi.

The actual band is similar to the stock rubber number included with the Watch, with splash-resistant elastometer construction. As for charging, Glide includes a stand able to simultaneously charge both Watch and CMRA band.

The CMRA comes in both 38 and 42mm sizes, and is currently available on a preorder basis before shipments start on Q2 2017.
