Is Named Official Camera of Miller Motorsports Park
LAS VEGAS, (CES 2013), January 7, 2013 ? iON Worldwide, the global consumer electronics company known for bringing Shoot/Share? Wi-Fi connectivity to point-of-view (POV) cameras, today announced the North American availability of the iON Speed Pro?, a high-definition (HD) video camera specially designed for shooting and sharing fast-paced motorsports action. It also announced a major partnership with Miller Motorsports Park in Tooele, Utah, one of the pre-eminent racing and training facilities in North America, which is a division of the Salt Lake City-based Miller Sports Properties. Under the terms of the multi-year agreement, the iON Speed Pro will become the Official Camera of Miller Motorsports Park.
The Speed Pro is one of three cameras iON is unveiling at CES 2013 in its quest to deliver a full line of cameras tailored to meet the diverse needs of a broad range of pro and consumer users. Also being announced are the iON Air Pro 2 with new 14-megapixel sensor and 180-degree lens and the GPS-equipped iON Adventure, designed for travelers and adventure-seekers.
With full 1080p HD resolution and a 170-degree wide-angle lens, the ultra-lightweight and waterproof iON Speed Pro is optimized for high-speed motor and marine sports. A variety of easy-to-use mounts allow users to attach the camera to their car, motorcycle, boat or other vehicle, ensuring that it's always perfectly positioned to capture the action. When paired with iON's signature Wi-Fi PODZ?, the Speed Pro camera enables users to immediately upload their videos to social sites using the iON Camera app for iOS and Android. The Speed Pro's capabilities can be seen in newly released videos shot by Team iON member and world-famous rally driver Petter Solberg in France and Finland.
Simultaneous to the Speed Pro launch, iON is kicking off its partnership with Miller Motorsports Park, which has hosted many of the world's most significant racing series and is home to a performance driving and motorcycle school. iON cameras will be the exclusive POV cameras used and sold at Miller Motorsports Park, and iON will be the title sponsor of a major event at Miller Motorsports Park in 2013. iON will also have a visible presence at Miller Motorsports Park, with signage prominently displayed throughout the venue as well as on helmets used in Miller's driving and riding schools and kart center. iON cameras will be used by instructors and made available for student use at all Miller Motorsports Park schools.
