Chameleon AI Auto Sports Action Camera - 4K 60FPS Soccer Camera and Basketball Tracking Camera for Team Sports, Live Streaming, No Subscription, Works with iOS & Android (Lemon Green)

I recently purchased the XbotGo Chameleon AI Auto Sports Action Camera (LIME Green) to record my son’s soccer games and a few basketball practices, and I’ve been testing it over the past couple of weeks.Setup was quick and user-friendly. The compact camera (about 7” x 3” x 2”, weighing just over a pound) came with a Bluetooth remote, USB-C charging cable, and a 1/4-inch screw mount for tripods. I paired it with my iPhone 13 (iOS 16) via the XbotGo app, which I downloaded and set up in under 5 minutes using Bluetooth—no Wi-Fi required. I mounted it on a 10-foot tripod (not included, but I used a standard one) at the edge of the soccer field, and the clamp securely held my phone without any risk of slipping. The app’s interface was intuitive, letting me select “soccer mode” and adjust settings like zoom or tracking sensitivity with a few taps. The 7500mAh battery lasted through two 90-minute soccer games without needing a recharge, aligning with the claimed 8-hour battery life.Performance impressed me for team sports. The xbotVision 2.0 AI tracked the ball and players across the field with about 90% accuracy, keeping the action in the 120° ultra-wide-angle lens’s frame even during fast breaks. The 4K 60FPS video was crisp, capturing details like jersey numbers clearly, though I noticed slight lag in tracking when players crowded near the camera or during sudden direction changes, requiring a quick reset via the remote. Live streaming to YouTube was seamless—I shared a game with family in real-time, and they praised the smooth, blur-free footage, enhanced by the 3-axis stabilization.

The media could not be loaded. Being an electronics enthusiast, I've come across phone gimbals and camera gimbals, but what I haven't come across is something like the XbotGo tracking camera gimbal. While DJI Osmo and other vlogging cameras with built in gimbals and object tracking are great for being your own cameraman, they are weak when it comes to recording and live streaming sports events.Before coming across this product, I watched a live stream of a basketball game streamed by my son's middle school done by another parent. It had a scorboard overlay and great quality. I always wondered how that was done. It was when I came across the XbotGo that it clicked for me. The parent must have used a similar device to this product.The XBotGo hardware is simple in concept. It has pan and tilt capabilities and a bluetooth remote for controlling the gimbal operation as well as starting and stopping the video. It has a camera built in that is used only for optical tracking. This condensed set of hardware makes the XbotGo more versatile as it leaves the camera and wireless hardware up to the phone that you provide. The streaming video quality is up to the phone that you provide. This is where the software comes in.The software is an all-important part of this system. It is used to connect to the Chameleon via bluetooth and provides the functionality that sets it apart from a standard phone gimbal. Upon starting the app, you choose the sport that you will be recording. This allows the Chameleon to customize its motion tracking to the sport. If you think about it, in Basketball or Soccer, the camera should be following the ball, not a specific person. This is the key feature that sets this product apart from standard gimbals.To really make the live stream work, you need to log in with an XBotGo account. From there, you will have the ability to live stream to Youtube or Facebook. To create a scoreboard overlay, you will need another phone. This phone will be the remote monitor for the Chameleon and you can customize the feed with a scoreboard.Even better is the ability for Chameleon to work with OBS. From a laptop, OBS can connect to a URL given by the product once you have the camera started. OBS treats this as a live source and you're then able to create even more overlays and stream to other social media platforms not covered by the XBotGo's app.Overall, this is a well thought out system that is just impressive with the results that you can get. Very cool.

This AI Sports camera is impressive, to say the least. It is lightweight and easily mounts to my tripod! I can take it to the kids' basketball and soccer games and set it up with no problem. The wide-angle lens covers nearly the whole court or field and rotates when needed to follow the action! The FollowMe mode is an added bonus that can focus on a single player throughout the game and seems to keep up pretty good even when moving fast! The battery life is great, and if fully charged, it will last well into the end of one game and to the next until the end of that one too! I have never used a camera like this and am just glad that the setup is very easy and it works awesome! You can even choose highlights to share on social media as well as live stream the games when you choose to do so! This camera has many sports modes to choose from and also offers a large cloud storage option without a subscription fee, so you don't have to take up space on your smartphone. A very impressive camera that gets better each time I use it!

I’ve been using this camera to record my kids’ soccer and basketball games. It’s a nifty device, lightweight that pairs with my phone’s camera to automatically follow a selected person, which helps capture their movements without me constantly adjusting the lens. I set it on a tripod, tweak the angle and height, and it does the rest. It keeps my child in frame as they dart across the field or court. The footage comes out smooth and clear, with no noticeable jitter or lag.The camera feels sturdy, and the remote control lets me start or stop recording from a short distance, say, if I’m sitting in the bleachers and the camera’s positioned closer to the action. The instructions were clear, so getting it up and running was easy. I also like that it works with both iOS and Android, since my husband and I use different phones, this is valuable, and we can both use it.
