Triggered Recording

Recently added in a software release, triggered recordings allow you to freely take videos without having to physically push the button. There are 3 modes to choose from that cover a wide range of circumstances through complete customization of settings:

Audio Trigger: Set your camera to automatically starts recording based on the sound it picks up. This mode is great for home surveillance or keeping an eye on the kids, but it’s also useful in a wide variety of other events and situations.

Motion Trigger: Allows your camera to begin recording whenever its lens detects motion within the viewing area. For nature photographers and athletes alike, this mode can do it all. Whether capturing that ever-elusive Sumatran tiger of recording your best trick on a mega ramp you no longer have to manually press the record button to capture the moment. Your 360fly camera automatically does it for you.

Accelerometer Trigger: Great for thrill-seekers, this camera mode automatically starts recording once the camera physically moves. Whether you are running, driving, or flying, any physical movement of the camera will launch the device into record mode. This mode also includes a 10-second pre-record feature where the previous 10 seconds before movement is detected is captured and automatically added to the beginning of the recorded video.

One of the great things about our trigger recording features is the customization options made available for each mode. Before setting up a triggered recording, you can fine-tune the sensitivity, duration, and delay time between captures.

The “Sensitivity” slider allows you to adjust the trigger level based on the event you’re attempting to capture. Set the slider high to record the flowing movements of a jellyfish, or low to match the hectic movements of a water-skiing run.

The “Duration” selector determines how long you want record— from a quick kickflip to a longer ski run. The 360fly 4K allows you to choose from 5 second, 10 second, 30 second, 1 minute, or 3 minute video durations.

The “Delay” selector gives you the ability adjust the time delay between video captures. Perfect for recording multiple clips while at an event, the camera allows you to set delay times of 5 seconds, 10 seconds, 30 seconds, and 1 minute.

Whether you’re a laid-back paddle boarder or a daredevil base-jumper, you can record and capture your life’s adventures with triggered recording.
