Acer’s new SpatialLabs Eyes camera brings 3D excitement to your photography
Acer brought some fun new products to Computex 2024 in Taiwan this week, one of which was its new SpatialLabs Eyes, a 3D stereo camera that’s designed for 3D photography, but is also perfect for content creation.
Whether you’re new to 3D photography or experienced with it, Acer says the SpatialLabs Eyes is an easy-to-use camera that will help bring your photos and videos to life. It features 8MP per eye and a built-in selfie mirror to help you get those perfect selfie shots. Acer plans to launch this camera in Q3 for $549. While we haven’t had the chance to use the camera, it caught our attention thanks to its compact nature and exciting 3D features, which is why it earned a Best of Computex 2024 award from Android Headlines.
Point-and-shoot photography becomes more fun with the SpatialLabs Eyes camera
Point-and-shoot photography has been around for ages with what feels like little movement forward when it comes to fun new features or experiences. Acer’s new SpatialLabs Eyes stereo camera changes all that. For starters, this is a compact camera. It’s small enough to fit in your pocket. Yet it’s not so small that you would find it annoying to use. On top of this, Acer designed it to be weatherproof. Which means you should be able to use it even in light rain.
Although you can use the camera out of the box without fiddling with settings, it does have a manual mode. Should you want more control over your image output, you can adjust quite a few things. ISO, white balance, and shutter speed settings are all available to tweak to your liking.
What’s more, is that you can use it for capturing 3D video in addition to photos. It’ll also have support for video conferencing apps like Zoom, Google Meet, and Microsoft Teams in Q3 alongside the camera. Acer says the camera’s “carefully calibrated lens alignment and advanced optical system allows for photographing subjects in greater 3D depth and detail.” You’ll need a SpatialLabs laptop or monitor to make the most of this camera. If you didn’t want one before, you’ll probably want one now.
Remember how we said this was easy to use? Well, it gets easier than just point-and-shoot. There’s a decent-sized touch screen on the back for menu and settings interaction. It supports microSD cards for storage and only weighs about 220g too. Acer has been pushing the envelope with cool new products and the SpatialLabs Eyes 3D stereo camera is the latest example of that. This is why we awarded it the Best of Computex 2024 award.
