LAS VEGAS—Chris Boyle was surfing with friends in the Dominican Republic a few years ago when came up with the idea for the Soloshot, a robotic camera that tracks your every more from about a mile away.

"My girlfriend was getting upset being asked over and over again to film us; we had to come up with something," he recalled.

This week he's at the International CES in Las Vegas to launch the Soloshot 2. It's a robotic camera that pans, tilts and zooms to keep you in shot by following a radio transmitter worn on the wrist.

It's aimed at surfers, skiers, equestrians and anyone else who wants to film themselves doing something active. Boyle said it's also good for parents who want to film their kid's soccer game without staying glued to the camera.
