Antigravity (影翎) Raises Series B at USD 1 Billion Valuation

Antigravity Closes Series B at USD 1 Billion Valuation

Antigravity (影翎), a consumer drone brand incubated by camera maker Insta360 (Arashi Vision) together with third-party partners, has closed a Series B round at a USD 1 billion valuation, according to a filing dated September 18, 2026. Temasek participated in the round, which included other US-dollar funds. The specific funding amount was not disclosed.

What the Company Does

Antigravity focuses on panoramic aerial imaging. Its flagship product, the Antigravity A1, was unveiled in August 2025 and released globally that December. The A1 is described as the world's first all-in-one 8K 360-degree drone. It combines a dual-lens panoramic camera built on Insta360 stitching technology with motion-based controls and FPV goggles, so the aircraft itself stays invisible in footage.

Founding and Incubation

The company was founded less than two years before its second funding round. It was incubated by Insta360 alongside third-party partners, giving it access to established camera and stitching technology from the outset.

The Round

The Series B was raised at a USD 1 billion valuation. Temasek is the disclosed investor, with other US-dollar funds also participating. No lead investor was named, and the funding amount was not disclosed.

Why It Matters

Consumer drones have become a mature category, but 360-degree panoramic capture represents a differentiated niche. Antigravity's integration of Insta360's stitching technology with an all-in-one drone form factor addresses a specific pain point: capturing immersive footage without the aircraft appearing in frame. The global release of the A1 in December 2025 gives the company an early commercial footprint.

Acquisition Angle

For acquirers, Antigravity offers a consumer hardware brand with a differentiated product, an established incubation lineage from Insta360, and a USD 1 billion valuation that signals late-stage maturity. Strategic buyers in consumer electronics, imaging or drone markets could view the company as a route to enter or expand in panoramic aerial imaging. The involvement of Temasek and other US-dollar funds suggests institutional confidence in the brand's global potential.

What to Watch

  • Global sales performance of the Antigravity A1 following its December 2025 release
  • Further product iterations or expansion beyond the flagship drone
  • How the Insta360 incubation relationship evolves as Antigravity scales independently

Antigravity remains privately held following the round.
