If you’re an iPhone user enthusiast and at the same time love videos and video shooting, you should probably meet Dot. Dot is a hardware attachment for capturing panoramic video for your iPhone. The little device starts shipping Tuesday and will soon land in the Apple Store nationwide starting November 1.

Dot, developed by New York-based Kogeto, is a compact iPhone 4 or iPhone 4S video camera attachment. It’s available in black, red, pink on green and can be purchased for $79.
To get it started all you need to do is snap Dot onto your iPhone 4/4S, download out free Looker app, and instantly record fully immersive 360 videos right on your iPhone. Are you thinking of going to a concert? You can record the show and the audience. Are you going on a road trip? You can leave Dot on the dashboard and it will dutifully record all your adventures. Dot sees everything!

Other stuff Dot could help you with? Well you can watch your videos on your iPhone by swiping your screen to virtually spin around, or switch modes and view them in panoramic widescreen. Looker allows you to instantly share your 360 world with friends and family (via facebook, twitter or kegeto.com).Dot is made up of durable iCONIC lens that work with the iPhone 4/ 4S HD video camera to capture the video – all at once – without merging frames.

The unique catadioptric optical system is full AR-coated for excellent color fidelity in all sorts of environments. Dot is also very light weighted and does not require batteries or external power.
