Charles Armstrong, Product Manager, Google Street View:
“The Ricoh Theta V is the first Street View Mobile Ready camera to be certified by Google. This distinction means that RICOH THETA V owners will be the first to experience the all-new auto mode, which allows you to create Street View imagery while you walk, bike or even drive—a huge improvement over having to photograph and connect individual 360 photos,” said Charles Armstrong, product manager for Google Street View: “The Ricoh Theta line of 360 cameras has consistently set the bar for combining quality, convenience, and affordability in a single product. We’re excited to offer our avid contributor community such a powerful new option for Street View authoring.”

3D Microphone Included For Free
Special 3D Microphone for Ricoh Theta V. The microphone was developed by Audio-Technica Corporation, a company that is recognized for the high technological level and reliability of its products. TA-1 can record very low frequency sounds up to midrange with a large-size directional microphone of approx. 1 cm. Compared to the built-in microphones, it achieves a high-quality sound recording, which is also suitable for recording musical performances. Attaching the windshield to the microphone prevents the recording of disturbing wind gusts in the outdoors and when recording video while camera is in motion.
