A Frenchman, Niepce, needed pictures for his business. But he was not a good artist. So he invented a very simple camera in 1826. He put it in a window of his house and took a picture of his garden. That was the first photo.
The next important date in the history of photography (攝影術(shù)) was in 1837. That year, Daguerre, another Frenchman, took a picture of his reading room. He used a new kind of camera in a different way. In his picture you could see everything very clearly, even the smallest thing.
In 1840, photography was developed once more. Then photographers could take pictures of people and moving things. But the photographers had many machines.
With the development of science and technology, a Chinese young man, Wang Mengqiu, invented Hover Camera (無人相機(jī)). He once studied at Stanford University in the United States. He became famous overnight because of his invention.
Hover Camera records movements with a 13MP camera and takes 4K videos. You can use a smartphone to control it. It can follow you, flying or staying in mid-air. In this way, it can get perfect pictures. It is the best choice for weddings, sports games and holidays because Hover Camera is convenient for the users to carry. It can be folded, so it can be put into a small bag. When the power is low, it can land safely.
In the future, cameras will be designed better and better. People can take more lively photos and videos.
