Antigravity has revised its A1 Follow Me Bundle, removing the AR goggles and replacing them with a companion watch and ring for intuitive control. Priced at $799, the bundle now emphasizes wearable input over head-mounted displays, targeting creators who prefer lightweight, hands-free operation during shoots. The system weighs just 351 grams, making it highly portable for on-the-go filming scenarios.
Control is handled via a new dual-stick remote controller, offering traditional drone piloting precision alongside automated follow-me modes. This hybrid approach allows creators to switch between manual framing and autonomous subject tracking depending on the shot requirements. Notably, both the dual-stick controller and integrated 4G module are excluded from the initial US release, suggesting regulatory or market-specific delays.
The shift to wearable controls—watch and ring—signals Antigravity’s focus on seamless interaction, enabling gesture-based commands or subtle inputs without obstructing vision. For vloggers, action sports filmmakers, and mobile journalists, this could reduce setup friction compared to goggle-dependent systems. However, the absence of the 4G module in the US may limit live streaming capabilities or real-time cloud integration for American users until further notice.
Antigravity positions the A1 as a compact solution for creators prioritizing agility and simplicity. By shedding the goggles and embracing minimal wearables, the kit aims to balance advanced tracking with everyday usability. Availability outside the US remains unconfirmed, but the $799 price point places it competitively within the premium follow-me drone segment. Creators should monitor regional rollout updates for access to the full feature set.
