Tripos – Chunk your camera

Triops Digital Camera
The digital photography industry has been booming non-stop for the past few years. That’s all well and good, but I feel like things have gotten a bit stale on the innovation side of things.

Industrial designer Franziska Faoro has seemingly felt this way too and has created a really unique new way to photograph life.

The Triops camera is a digital camera that’s built to take pictures via a trigger by sound, movement, or a manual release. Yes, the word “movement” is in there and yes that is a rubber padding on that photo of the product. You can throw this camera down the street, in the woods, underwater, wherever…it’s made to take a beating and capture things you couldn’t duplicate if you tried.

Unfortunately this isn’t in production yet. Let’s cross our fingers and hope it gets there.
