Surveillance where
the grid can't reach.
The Sharpvue Solar Portable Surveillance Unit is a fully solar-powered, pole-mounted platform for sites with no reliable power. Dual panels and an onboard battery keep cameras streaming for days — no trenching, no electrician, no grid connection.
Sun in, AI-monitored
video out — anywhere.
The SPSU is a self-contained surveillance posture for sites off the grid entirely. Solar power in, AI-monitored video out, managed remotely — with optional AC failover and live-operator response.
Solar-powered, days of autonomy
Two solar panels keep the onboard battery topped off and the cameras streaming for days — through overnight and cloudy stretches — with no grid connection and no fuel.

Solar Portable Surveillance Unit (SPSU)
Surveillance where the grid can't reach.
The Sharpvue SPSU is a fully solar-powered, pole-mounted surveillance platform for sites with no reliable power. Dual solar panels and an onboard battery keep cameras streaming for days without sun, with optional AC failover for permanent installs. It clamps to almost any pole and deploys in an afternoon — no trenching, no electrician, no grid connection.
