Role Type: Contractor

Location: Remote

Job Description

micro1 is engaging 360° Vehicle Navigation Video Recorders equipped with cameras such as the Insta360 or GoPro MAX to contribute to a customer project by capturing immersive, high-quality vehicle-navigation footage. In this role, you’ll apply your expertise to help train next-generation AI systems. Your work will shape how models learn, reason, and perform through high-quality, real-world input.

We are looking for individuals to record their vehicles navigating a variety of real-world environments from a trailing third-person perspective. Assignments may include driving on local roads, completing turns and stops, navigating intersections, entering parking areas, parking, and moving between different road or neighborhood environments.

This flexible contract opportunity can fit around trips or commutes you already make. If your planned route matches an available assignment and satisfies its recording requirements, you may claim the assignment and record it during that trip.

Those selected for this role may also choose to complete additional recording assignments that do not involve vehicle navigation. Participation in these assignments is entirely optional and based on individual interest and assignment availability.

Requirements

You must already own or have access to:

A compatible 360° action camera, such as an Insta360, GoPro MAX, or comparable device.

Software capable of reframing and exporting 360° footage in a trailing third-person view.

A secure, vehicle-rated camera mounting system capable of producing the required exterior third-person perspective is strongly preferred. Limited equipment support may be available to qualified individuals who do not already own a compatible mount.

Responsibilities

Select vehicle-navigation assignments from a predefined list.

Capture stable, continuous vehicle-navigation footage from the required trailing third-person perspective.

Record varied local driving with natural turns, stops, intersections, and parking activity.

Export and submit footage according to the assignment requirements.

Ideal Applicants

Already use a 360° camera for automotive, travel, action-sports, or driving footage.

Understand camera mounting, stabilization, reframing, and video export.

Drive regularly and can incorporate approved assignments into existing trips.

Pay close attention to camera angle, video quality, and environmental coverage.

Can independently verify footage before submission.

Application screening questions

How soon can you start the work? (in days)

What is your expected hourly rate in USD?

How many hours per week are you available to work?

Do you own an action/360° camera with ≥170° FOV and ≥720p resolution (e.g. Insta360 X3/X4/X5/X6, DJI Osmo 360, GoPro MAX/MAX2, or equivalent)?

Please specify your camera model and additional equipment below:

Please provide a Google Drive link to a short ~3-second sample recorded with your camera. The sample should show you walking through a door while holding the camera at the widest FOV it allows. Third person or first person is fine for this, though third person is preferred. We do not require a backpack or mounting rig, since this is mainly to verify camera FOV compatibility. Make sure to grant the necessary permissions so our team can review it.

Does the action camera you will use come with software that lets you create and save trailing third-person view videos, and are you comfortable using that software for every upload?
