Ricoh Theta S (get the camera)
NOTE: The Theta S camera is already outdated and not recommended for use with the JobWalk app anymore due to very low resolution compared to the newer camera options.

IMPORTANT: The raw images of the Insta360 cameras are saved in a format on the camera that is not supported for direct upload in the HoloBuilder Web Editor.
