Industrial designer p Sheth has envisaged a fascinating Vivo smartphone with a divisible camera that can fly in the air and take filmland from a distance


Smartphone maker Vivo last week patented a veritably unique smartphone model a Vivo smartphone with a divisible camera drone – a story that has gone viral on the internet. The camera can be dissociated from the cell phone, after which it can fly in the air thanks to four erected- in propellers. It's an intriguing conception, in proposition it allows you to take filmland from veritably delicate and varied angles- allowing for fully new perspectives and creative shots. Plus, these little drones can be a lot of fun to play with.


This interesting study led artificial developer Sarang Sheth, Editor- in- Chief of Yanco Design, to bring this unique Vivo smartphone to life in 3D visualization.

Vivo's patented smartphone camera drone has at least two cameras- bone on the front and one on the top. Voluntarily, a third and fourth camera can be added. For illustration, a camera pointing down looks simpler in numerous cases than a camera pointing overhead.


In addition to the cameras, four propellers and three infrared propinquity detectors are installed. The detector must insure that the camera drone doesn't fly into anything. The flying camera will also be equipped with its own battery. It'll probably be charged contemporaneously with the smartphone. The operation of the drone will be directly through the smartphone screen.


In the 3D renders designed by Sarang, it's easily visible that the camera drone can not be larger thanapprox. 5x5cm else it wouldn't fit on top of the smartphone – where the pop- up camera would typically be. Also, it should be a enough flat drone. After all, a smartphone is lower than 1 cm thick. So it's really a mini drone.

As the flying camera must be light and small, the flight distance will probably be limited. still, the attestation lacks details. A mini drone can have numerous benefits. For illustration, such a small drone would be veritably accessible to take on holiday or for a day out. Once you are done flying, you can fluently store the system on your smartphone.


Current drones are at least doubly as large and heavier. The light and thin design can pose a serious problem as the wind will soon gain the upper hand. Of course, Vivo has designed its own unique gimbal- enabled image stabilization system, but there is a good chance that a drone this small will have trouble taking sharp prints- especially when there is a gust of wind. In addition, such a small device is relatively fragile, which increases the threat of damage and loss.


At least you do not have to worry about switching cameras in case your friend decides to buy the same smartphone. A point detector is placed in a removable mounting type, allowing identification of the camera system.

Of course, it's more likely that Vivo will not vend the product than it'll- clearly in the short term. Smartphone manufacturers are formerly floundering to fit all the necessary factors into a compact case. Such a drone would take up a lot of precious space.


Also, you can imagine the size of the target group for such a smartphone. It's clearly a funny contrivance, but whether you will actually use it's another question. Regulations around drones are also getting stricter. Not to mention the specialized challenges that come with such a small and featherlight camera drone.


On the other hand, noway say noway . After all, last time Vivo showed a conception smartphone with a divisible frontal camera. The camera couldn't fly, but it was possible to take filmland from a distance with a separate camera. The conception of drones might be a logical coming step.


Speaking of Vivo smartphones, the Chinese manufacturer will launch its first foldable smartphone latterly this time. It's presently unknown what kind of model it'll be. In late 2020, the company patented a Vivo folding phone with a stylus pen.
