To make it easy to carry around, the Nebula Mars 3 has an integrated handle, and its ruggedness comes courtesy of its IPX3 water resistance rating, half a meter drop resistance, and 0.7mm dust resistance. It also features a built-in stand, lens cover and camping light.
The AI engine works by automatically adjusting the screen brightness, to achieve the best viewing experience possible based on your conditions. There is also something Nebula calls Intelligent Environment Adaptation, a sensor that autofocuses the picture, applies keystone correction and fits the screen to the correct size - all in three seconds.
It also works with Chromecast and Google, making it even easier to use and offering more viewing options.
The Nebula Mars 3 is available now with a price tag of $1,099.99.
