Paintball Security System - Deter Intruders

The Rise of a Unique Security Solution: The Eve PaintCam

Doorbell cameras have become increasingly common in modern homes. The growing popularity stems from decreasing costs and improved ease of use in connected security systems.

Despite their prevalence, conventional systems lack a particular capability: the ability to non-lethally deter intruders and pests by launching paintballs.

Introducing the Eve PaintCam

The Eve PaintCam directly addresses this gap in the market. Its tagline, “Safety Simplified,” hints at its unconventional approach to home security.

The Slovenian development team behind the device showcased their technology at CES 2025, following successful funding rounds on both Kickstarter and Indiegogo platforms.

Models and Target Applications

Four distinct models comprise the Eve PaintCam lineup, all built around the core concept of projectile deterrence.

The Eve, Eve+, and EvePro models are primarily designed to deter human intruders. Conversely, the camouflaged Simba model focuses on repelling unwanted wildlife.

Advanced Features and Projectile Options

The system incorporates a suite of intelligent features, varying by model configuration.

• Pet detection helps avoid accidental targeting of household animals.
• Face recognition can identify known individuals.
• Animal recognition AI distinguishes between different species.

A diverse selection of projectiles is available, including options with capsaicin – the active component in chili peppers – which the company states is permissible in most jurisdictions.

Furthermore, specialized projectiles are offered for specific animal species, alongside UV-filled paintballs designed to aid law enforcement in tracking identified individuals.
