{{stub}}[[Odyssey]] is a [[virtual reality]] [[camera]] developed by [[GoPro]]. It is the first camera built utilizing [[Google]]'s [[Jump]] platform. Odyssey is composed of 16 [[GoPro HERO4 Black]] cameras lining the rim of a ring-shaped array. It uses Jump's software to stitch together feed from each GoPro camera to create [[stereoscopic]] 3D and panoramic videos.
In May 2016, Odyssey was shipped to select [[VR companies]], [[WEVR]], [[VRSE]], [[Specular]], [[Surreal]], [[Theory]] and [[Two Bit Circus]], through a limited access pilot program.
