mobile solution for capturing and sharing amazing content.
Highlighted products include GoPro's HERO5 line of cameras,
featuring unlocked telemetry acquisition capabilities in HERO5

Quik mobile and desktop editing apps and GoPro Plus, the company's
cloud subscription service that enables HERO5 cameras to

GoPro's CES booth is in Central Hall: (#14141)
"For GoPro, 2017 is all about mobile storytelling -- HERO5 and
the Quik app enable exactly that," said Nicholas Woodman, GoPro's Founder and CEO.
"Advanced users can take their stories to the next level with
Karma Grip stabilization and our
drone, Karma."
At CES, GoPro is demonstrating recent product breakthroughs
including:
- Auto-uploading HERO5 cameras and GoPro
Plus subscription service make it easy to capture, edit and
share your story. With GoPro Plus, your HERO5 camera can
automatically upload any new photos and videos to your GoPro cloud
account. From there, the Quik mobile app makes it simple to create
stunning edits on a smartphone and the Quik desktop app provides
expanded editing options for power users. GoPro Plus is currently
available in the US and will be debuting in international markets
in early 2017.
- Quik Key mobile microSD card reader enables fast
editing and sharing from a smartphone. Want to edit your GoPro
footage on your phone without waiting to get home to auto-upload
your content to the cloud? This mobile microSD card reader is the
fastest way to transfer photo and video files to your phone. Then
use the Quik mobile app to automatically create amazing edits with
pumping soundtracks, visual effects, and more.
- GPS and telemetry data acquisition capabilities
unlocked in HERO5 Black. HERO5 Black features GPS and
additional sensors that capture your location, elevation, speed,
and G-force loads. You can now view this data as graphical overlays
on your videos when using the Quik app for desktop. Want to know
how fast you were skiing, how many g-forces you pulled while
carving on your surfboard or how far and high you climbed on your
bike? All of these data points and more are displayed as stunning
graphical overlays that you can save to your videos or export and
share as exciting still images.
- Karma Grip is a $299
handheld and wearable camera stabilizer that makes it easy to
capture zero-shake, Hollywood-smooth video. Your ordinary
shots will look extraordinary whether you're skiing, biking or just
chasing your kids through life. Karma
Grip can be handheld or body-worn using GoPro's Seeker
backpack, chest harness, and more.
- Karma will re-launch in 2017. GoPro withdrew
Karma from the market in November
2016 after a small number of instances of power loss due to
a mechanical issue related to securing the drone's battery. GoPro
is completing its testing, and in early February, will provide more
detail for the global relaunch of Karma in 2017.
