The GoPro has already revolutionized the way we think about documenting our experiences. The compact, lightweight camcorder has been adopted by everyone from extreme sports arteurs to pet owners and citizen journalists. But what really makes the GoPro so uniformly adopted by these varied users is the array of intuitive and easy-to-use mounts and accessories GoPro owners can use to put their cameras anywhere and do anything with them. In order to meet the needs of consumers who constantly push the boundaries of what is possible, companies like Best Buy must always be ready to come up with the newest, most innovative accessories for GoPro’s users.

Deliverables

Propose a unique GoPro accessory to compliment the large assortment currently found in Best Buy stores. Your idea can be for any aspect of GoPro use, from on-camera add-ons to mounts, harnesses, or systems to enhance their use, but it should not be something currently offered by GoPro or another third party company.

Please submit the following:

(1) A drawing or diagram of your proposed idea.

(2) A description of what the product is, what it is used for, how it is used, and any key design elements.

(3) Any other materials or explanations you see fit.

Ideally, your product would have wide enough appeal to warrant mass-production and wide retail distribution, but if you also have larger-scale ideas or truly innovative and quirky concepts, please do not hesitate to submit them too!

***NOTE: Uniqueness is key. Your product cannot copy or clone existing accessories on the market.***
