Dual Electronics Joins GoPro Developer Program

Heathrow, FL - Dual Electronics Corporation announced today it is working to integrate Dual's portable GPS receivers with GoPro HERO4 cameras, as part of the GoPro Developer Program. The integration allows the GoPro cameras to receive real-time information from Dual's GPS devices, including precise GPS coordinates, g-force, yaw, pitch and roll. This information is captured and seamlessly aligned with the video during recording, and can be viewed on-screen alongside the video. The first compatible Dual GPS receiver is expected to be available in Q3 2016.

"We are incredibly excited to be among the first to create connectivity between our products and GoPro cameras," said Greg Lukins, VP, Business Development, Dual Electronics. "The addition of real-time GPS information in the GoPro video stream not only presents great value to sports enthusiasts, but it also streamlines data analysis in commercial applications such as infrastructure inspection, natural resource management, and security monitoring," added Lukins. "We are excited to welcome Dual into the GoPro Developer Program," said Adam Silver, director of strategic partnership products at GoPro. "The creativity of developers like Dual is inspiring, and we are eager to support the enhanced customer experience they enable by combining GoPro content with the data their GPS receivers collect."

Dual is working to enable three of their portable GPS receivers to have connectivity with GoPro cameras: the XGPS500 and XGPS165 GPS receivers (availability in Q3 of 2016), and the currently available XGPS190 GPS receiver with attitude and heading reference system (AHRS) to provide g-force, roll, pitch and yaw information. Each receiver connects to a GoPro camera wirelessly via Bluetooth Smart (BLE), and each is powered by its integrated rechargeable battery, which lasts from 5 - 10 hours of continuous use, depending on the model. The presentation of the information captured by the GPS receiver can be organized and displayed using GoPro's Developer Program toolkits and other third-party software applications.For more information on the Dual GPS receivers, visit gps.dualav.com.
