I've never heard of those, what model was he using?

  It's called an Insta360. Lots of fun. Using it... you stop thinking of it as a directional camera, and start thinking of it as a point in space. While it's streaming to your phone, you stand there and hold your phone in front of you and whichever way you turn the phone's inertial direction tracking syncs your screen to that part of the panorama. If that makes sense. As if you were just taking a photo of what's around you, except you're looking at what's around the 360 camera. And then while it's live, or later when you play it back, you can use your phone's tracking and zooming to shoot "normal" flat 2D videos inside of whatever it captured, sort of like you're there and you can shoot the scene all over again. The editing capability to me was kind of the killer feature... you don't need to worry about framing subjects. Six of us put it in the middle of the table during dinner, and later on cut a video that pans or jumps to whoever was talking. It's also really low-key, because people don't know what it is, and it doesn't look like you're pointing a camera at them. Even though it's capturing everything around it. We were able to go all over a casino with it and no one on staff noticed.
