Connect any camera* on any network to intelligent video search & alerts.
Get your cameras cloud-connected with the Ella Box. Any camera can have secure, unlimited storage for 30-day video history, real-time human and object detection, natural language search, and smart alerts.
Ella learns what you find interesting from the way you use it, and Ella Box uses that learning to pre-filter video events on your local network as a fast and efficient video gateway to the cloud.
Unlike cameras that upload continuously or only upon pixel motion detection, each Ella Box handles multiple video streams without bogging down your Internet connection. Plus, it supports all industry-standard cameras. There's no lock-in to proprietary, cloud-tethered cameras. See relevant video events 10x faster than wading through hours of recorded video.
Just scan the QR code on the Ella Box package to open the cloud.icrealtech.com/box/register page in any Web browser. Then choose the cameras you want connected to Ella. That's it!
Ella automatically discovers the cameras on your local network to start recording their RTSP video streams. There are no complicated network configuration changes and no inbound port vulnerabilities.
Ella Box was born out of frustration with the insecure and outdated firmware of hundreds of top-selling security cameras that were otherwise quite capable of producing beautiful HD video streams.
Without support for modern technology standards like SSL, secure authentication, and Machine Learning, the cameras served only as live-viewing novelty toys with insecure remote access.
The latest generation of cameras were excessive in their bandwidth consumption, using 2mbps per camera in continuously streaming to the cloud. So even people that could afford to spend a lot on cloud-tethered cameras had no way to use more than 1 or 2 cameras without bogging-down their Internet connections.
So Ella is bringing the modern firmware that powers Ella Box to all camera and NVR makers. Someday, every camera will be capable and secure on its own. But until then, Ella Box brings the future of intelligent video monitoring to all cameras and NVRs.*
See the highlights at-a-glance no matter where you are. Get super-fast search and alerts from any camera with this combination of local analysis and cloud processing.
With Ella Box, 24x7 cloud-based video history is efficient. Box’s continuous collaboration with the advanced Machine Learning in the cloud reduces costs and improves the quality of video monitoring. Learn More.
