What did they do exactly? Reading the site was unhelpful.
Video capturing app with filters and some social media components. They also had fantastic video stabilization. I'm guessing they're what's powering Instagram's video functionality.
It's a shame I hadn't heard of it until they pulled it out of the app store, are there any similar apps out there?
This is amazing! When I first saw Luma, I thought it was technology too early for common person/user. But integrating it with Instagram's existing user base, everyone can start reaping the benefits. Good job guys!
Well, just deleted Luma.
What a sad thing. Last thing I want is to route my vids through FB...
This just caused me to look back at a few videos I recorded playing around with Luma. They really are fantastic. It looks like I'm filming with a steady cam, flying alongside my running kid.
Congratulations!
Congrats to the Luma team - very useful stabilization that I've demo'd to others.
Congrats - some really impressive technology from a small team.
Congrats, awesome tech from talented and nice guys!
Congrats guys!
The technology is fantastic, love how good the videos come out. Really looking forward to what Instagram does with it. Congrats to the brothers.
Nice work to the brothers Karpenko! I always knew luma.io was going to have a happy ending.
When they say "acquired by Instagram", does Instagram have the authority to do that, or does it just mean "acquired by Facebook to be used for Instagram"?
