A start-up company from Slovenia called PaintCam has come up with an innovative solution for home security systems. The product, Eve, incorporates artificial intelligence to detect trespassers. But its job isn’t just detecting and notifying you. It fires non-lethal paintballs and tear gas on the intruders.

Eve shows that security systems can be more than just passive observers

The device, Eve, is equipped with advanced computer vision technology to accurately identify people and animals even at night time. And if you’re thinking about visitors, it has a solution for that as well. You can set people as “friends” or “enemies” to avoid unwanted triggering of Eve.

Notably, when Eve detects an unknown person, it warns the person first that it has identified him/her as an intruder. It asks to leave the property within five seconds. If they do not follow the instructions of this device, it starts its unique method marking the intruders with paintballs without harming them or emitting tear gas. And if a stranger appears next to one of its known people, it will ask whether to fire or not. If the unknown person is just a new visitor, you will be able to easily prevent the false triggering of the safety system. However, if you are not present at the scene, then the unknown visitor will have to leave your place.

PaintCam’s Eve appears in three different versions – Eve, Eve+, and Eve Pro. The startup notes that the base model offers turn-on/off control through its app, the Eve+ also detects animals on top of the base features. Speaking of the Eve Pro, it can also detect faces.

Availability

The Eve will launch on April 23 and it will be available on Kickstarter. PaintCam has not revealed the pricing of their new product yet. There’s an option to notify when the product launches on both PaintCam’s official website and the product listing page on Kickstarter.
