Panoramic Camera Ball

This invention could be perfect for the photographer readers. This device contains 36 two-megapixel mobile phone cameras, an accelerometer and a control unit. The user throws the camera into the air and when the accelerometer detects the peak height it triggers all 36 camera modules at once, taking a 360 degree spherical panoramic picture. The camera can them be connected to computer and using a specific programme, the image can be viewed and move freely around the panorama and focus on any aspect of the photo.
Just make sure you catch it after you've thrown it!
