How It All Began
They self-funded this project from the beginning, developing numerous prototypes, conducting tests and analyzing feedback for the past year. Through this, they developed key relationships with electronic component suppliers all around the world to source the highest quality components. They developed the Geco concept in-house by using 3D printers and 3rd party components. Crowdfunding will enable them to make our product more affordable – bringing the retail price down to $120- making it one of the most affordable action cams on the market.
