Hi,
Compare Orah with Jaunt.
https://www.jauntvr.com/technology/
Large price difference. Jaunt has many more cameras. No microphone
built in. Have seen it used with what looked like one of Len's Core
Sound microphones and a Tascam recorder.
There aren't many places to hide microphones with cameras like these.
Ciao,
Dave Hunt

Finally, a 3D camera with an integrated FOA microphone?
https://www.orah.co/tech-specs/
https://www.orah.co/about/ :
"In addition, the ambisonic 3D sound capture capabilities of Orah
enable the viewer of the content to locate the origin of the sound
source with a VR headset, bringing the feeling of immersion to a
stunning new level."
https://www.orah.co/ :
Looking at the pictures and captions, it says: "Immersive Sound, Four
high dynamic-range microphones for ambisonic 3D sound". The capsules
(or mems?) look soldered on the sides of PC boards, listening through
holes.

very far apart, with body resonances that i don't want to imagine.
hate to be negative about so much exciting new tech, but "stick
n>=4 cheap capsules somewhere and call it ambisonic" seems
questionable to me. simple truth of the matter is that as long as
video techs add mics as an afterthought, the results are going to
suck, badly.
