FCC grants waiver for new surveillance tool

The FCC has granted a Request for Waiver filed by the Law
Enforcement Technologies Division of the Remington Arms Company seeking to certify and market its Remington Eyeball R1 Transmitter.

The Eyeball R1 imaging sensor is designed to be thrown like a baseball into a remote or confined location to
broadcast real-time images and sound from the surrounding area, and may be sold only to eligible law enforcement agencies.

The R1 transmits in the 2400-2483.5 MHz band using analog modulation and provides color or black and white video of a 55 degree conical field of view, the direction of which is remotely controlled using a transmitter in the 902-928 MHz band. System cost: about $4,800.
