Video app Meerkat to allow live-streaming from GoPro cameras
(Reuters) - Users of GoPro Inc's high-end cameras will be able to directly stream video shot by their cameras onto live-streaming video app Meerkat.
GoPro4 camera owners can use the Meerkat app on their Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) iPhones to live-stream, according to a video posted on Meerkat's Twitter (NYSE:TWTR) page on Thursday. (http://bit.ly/1IojJlV)
The move by Meerkat to integrate with GoPro is its latest to top rival Periscope, owned by Twitter Inc .
Earlier this month, Meerkat introduced a feature called 'Cameo', which lets any viewer take control of a live stream.
Meerkat, which boasts celebrity users such as talk show host Jimmy Fallon, lets people stream videos that cannot be rewatched. Periscope, on the other hand, allows users to save videos.
