Customers demanding better sound for their self-shot mobile device videos? Solocam might have a recording studio solution in the shape of a Bluetooth HD microphone integrated within a selfie stick.

SolocamCompatible with cameras and GoPros, as well as smartphones, the Solocam might look slightly ridiculous (as all selfie sticks tend to do), but it also promises "superior audio quality," a "unique" ergonomic handle and even a companion app offering teleprompter, joystick, live streaming and special effects functionality.

The actual mic connects with mobile devices via Bluetooth 4.0 and the aptX codec, and comes complete with built-in wind and pop filter, vocal-tailored frequency response and compatibility with other aftermarket cartridges.

The Solocam is currently available as a preorder on the Indiegogo crowdfunding platform, and shipments should kick off from December 2015.
