Roofless Labs secures CHF50,000 grant to prepare K4MERA camera launch
The Swiss startup will move its four-camera device toward industrialisation and a commercial launch after receiving FIF Seed Tech funding.
Four views in a looping image
Roofless Labs’ K4MERA is a compact camera for photographers and visual creators. Four synchronised cameras capture different viewpoints and combine them into a looping stereoscopic image, or wigglegram, that gives a subject a sense of depth; a companion app lets users adjust the result.
The CHF50,000 FIF Seed Tech award is a grant from a Geneva Canton innovation programme. Roofless Labs plans to use it to advance industrialisation, prepare the camera’s commercial launch and consolidate its intellectual-property strategy.
