[00:00:03] Speaker A: Narrative Clip is a wearable camera that takes 2 photos a minute. You just set it on your clothing or on a necklace, and it takes photos of everything you do. 2 photos a minute, the entire day. And most users pick the days they want to record. There's like a segment of users wearing it more 24/7, the entire week as well. But most people pick the moments they want to record it as photos. We actually put 30

[00:00:28] Speaker A: hours of battery life into the camera because that's what you need. A solid full day, in some cases even 2 days with the Narrative Clip.

[00:00:36] Speaker B: Okay, great. And when can consumers get their hands on it, and how much does it run for?

[00:00:40] Speaker A: So the Narrative Clip 1 is out now. It's been out in the market the past year. It's $149. The Clip 2 that we see behind us here is out later this year for $199.

[00:00:53] Speaker B: And what are the main differences between the Clip 1 and the Clip 2?

[00:00:56] Speaker A: First, it's the image quality. The Clip 2 has an 8-megapixel camera with a wider-angle lens, so you capture more of the scene in front of you. And then we have We have the wireless connectivity, so there's Wi-Fi and Bluetooth shipped on the Clip 2 to allow you to effortlessly upload photos on the go. And we also have a modular back. On the Clip 1, it's a fixed metal clip. On the Clip 2, you will be able to exchange that for any kind of mount.

[00:01:18] Speaker B: Okay, so Narrative is making capturing those moments a little easier.
