We know that HTC is planning on launching some type of GoPro camera competitor in the near future, and it looks like it'll be called the REcamera. The device will be some kind of smartphone accessory and will likely be fairly rugged and waterproof for capture action shots and the like.
Thanks to an FCC filing, we can confirm that it'll definitely be able to connect to a smartphone (although that doesn't rule out the possibility that it can be used on its own). The filing shows that the device features WiFi radios as well as Bluetooth LE, both of which are extremely common ways to connect peripherals to smartphones. The filing didn't reveal anything about the rest of the hardware, so we're still not sure what kind of megapixel count or anything HTC will go with.
At this point we're still just running with leaks and rumors, but HTC has their camera event lined up for October 8th, just a week away from now. We won't have to wait too much longer.
