Leave a Review XbotGo
So so
I would say the xbot is decent but needs a reliable tracking system for games when you are focused on one person and also I would say add a volleyball mode, and also jersey number even though I know it is in beta just doesn’t work at allNeeds Work
I purchased the Xbot Go Chameleon for use with 11 v 11 soccer games and the unit has a hard time keeping up with the action. Too many times it falls behind the ball and is missing crucial plays when players are moving at an accelerated pace.
The unit also seems to get distracted very easily by crowds surrounding any side of field or if another soccer ball is detected in the field of view. The last game I tried using the Chameleon in, the camera kept getting stuck on a second team warming up to the right side of field. I got so frustrated I took the camera down because it was becoming a distraction for me.
It might be that other sports camera use a cropped wide angle image to follow the action where this is physically moving based on separate AI camera. I don’t know for sure but just speculating.
I had used it in a smaller scenario for Soccer practice and it seems to handle that better but for bigger tournaments or busier games I’m not sure this will be able to keep up.
I’m hoping these things can be addressed with some future firmware updates and called out specifically if or when improved, otherwise the return on investment might not be realized.Show lessGood idea but needs work
This app along with the gimbal is a good start
The following need to be addressed to make it better
1) allow for higher resolution recording. 1080 limits the quality for post production
2) allow manual zoom when recording games
3) set boundaries for the tracker to work within
4) allow mirroring of the screen to another device, like GoPro does. It’s difficult to see what you are recording when your phone is 10-13’ high. The tracker may not be capturing everything. This is when the remote will help to adjust tracking.
5) configuration should be testable to make sure it is setup correctly. For example, the recording angle may be too large or small and you won’t know until it’s too late when you are recording.
5) hardware problem, the gimbal is not water resistant.Show less
