The Stingray Story
Moodboard
We took heavy inspiration from retro futuristic designs. From the very beginning we knew that we wanted to make something that would set us apart from the crowd. We knew that we wanted to design something special and bring something unique to the market that nobody had seen before.
An idea was born
On June 8th, 2023, an extremely rough sketch was created on a notepad. We knew we wanted it large at the front to accommodate a wide variety of different cameras and sensors. We also knew we wanted to have a POE powered module in the back of the case.
After standing back and taking a look at it, its outline resembled a Stingray...
Stingray was born
Early in development
Version 1 marked the initial manifestation of Stingray - bulky and exceptionally plain. While the second revision would bring radical changes to rectify these aspects, the first version did manage to achieve something noteworthy: paving the way for future iterations.
All it needed now was some style...
Stylisation
Now with an official name, it was time to make the first stylised Stingray. This is the first version where it had the right size and profile but it looked similar to other sensors out there on the market. We needed to do something to separate ourselves from everyone else and stand out from the rest of the crowd.
End result
If you're going to build a camera sensor and bring it out for everyone in the world to see.. why not do it with some style?
Version 3 was the first version to fully bring all of these design ideas, features and aspects all together in the perfect harmony.
