Robin Good: In this video shot by Robert Scoble you can get a very good idea of what the Swivl can do and how it works.


Recap: The Swivl is a $159 mini-robot that can video-record you as you move by following via a set of sensors your own position. 

Video bloggers who may like to record in front of a video camera but have no one helping them out could find some benefit from this new tool, as one of the cofounders explains in this video.


Key traits: 

No Setup Required
Multi-Axis Motion

Remote video start-stop controls

Works with any tripod mountable pocket cam

(Max weight size for supporter small video cameras is 6 ounces.)


The only drawback is that you have to wear or hold in your hand a funny green button.
