DJI, the Chinese technology company, has released its new Osmo action camera.  The camera looks like a web-cam on a robatic arm, but the image quality is stunning.  The camera's design eliminates shaky shots and ensures cinema quality video everytime.

The beauty of the Osmo is its robatic rig.  The rig stabilizes the camera, eliminating any unintended shakes, and includes a joystick to control simple camera moves. The rig also has a place for your smartphone to hook up to the camera to use as a monitor. The Osmo shoots in 4K, is small and lightweight, and is available for $649.

How to appeal to a demographic that spends most of their time on social media?
