The iBall Camera

One camera.
Any mission.

The iBall runs any video-analytics module — stage measurement, flood detection, wildlife census, traffic monitoring — remotely loaded via over-the-air update. No hardware swaps. No site visits to repurpose.

Solar-powered and cellular-connected by design, the iBall deploys where competitors can't: remote watersheds, bridges, and wildland interfaces — feeding live data to the cloud from day one.

  • Universal app-based design — any analytics module, any time
  • Solar-powered · grid-independent
  • Cellular-connected · cloud-integrated
  • Over-the-Air module updates
  • Easy to deploy, easy to scale
The Software

RedEye Camera Manager (RCM)

iBall cameras ship in 'standalone' mode by default, supporting direct user connection to each camera for configuration. RedEye Camera Manager is our optional cloud platform for managing multi-camera networks easily at scale. Once an iBall camera is registered into RCM, operators can manage it and all other cameras in their network from a single web dashboard: configure cameras individually or in bulk, monitor device health and connectivity, manage multiple users and their permissions, and review the imagery and time-series data each camera has captured.

RCM is the operational layer that makes fleet-scale deployment practical. Features include:

  • Live fleet status, configuration, and performance monitoring
  • Over-the-air module upload, updates, and configuration
  • Multi-user accounts with per-camera permissions
  • User groups & camera groups for group-based access control
  • Cloud-based image & data archive — no client data center required
