Nokia, a brand that was widely popular back in the days for its innovation of mobile phones, are now back with its latest technology, OZO Virtual Reality camera. Currently its available in the U.S and Canada, through authorized reseller.

OZO was first launched back in November 2015 and is now expanding through its first rental and resale partners across North America. OZO is the first and only VR camera expertly designed for professional use. The camera features real-time VR preview, 3D 360 spatial audio and video capture, full compatibility with professional workflows and broadly available head mounted displays, and the ability to dramatically reduce post-production time, complexity and cost. 

Guido Voltolina, Head of Presence Capture, Nokia Technologies, in a press release, said: “We are excited to announce OZO’s availability in the U.S. and Canada through three retail and rental facilities. AbelCine, OffHollywood, and Radiant Images are vital to helping OZO reach the professional VR creation audience, especially in the primary markets they play in. We have carefully selected these first three partners because of their expertise in the space, their relationships with our core customers and their affinity with our vision for VR. We look forward to partnering with them to connect creators with OZO.”

Nokia first developed OZO to ensure that professionals could create content that are easier, faster and more affordable. Nokia’s reseller are aiming to cater the device across multiple vertical markets, including filmmaking, entertainment, marketing, new media and interactive content.
