Petal: a smart camera that tells nature's stories

Most cameras capture movement.

This one rewards stillness.

Petal is a camera shaped like a flower, powered by a solar panel shaped like a leaf. But it doesn’t just look like nature, it listens to it.

It detects motion and sound from birds, bees, and butterflies, and transforms those moments into curated 4K video. Yes, like a personal BBC Earth documentary, streamed from your backyard or balcony.

It’s fully standalone. No garden required. Mount it on a stack of soil. Wrap it around a branch. Let it sit in stillness and watch wonder arrive.

Imagine a butterfly landing, captured in slow motion.

A curious child whispering, “What’s that bee’s name?”. 

A classroom identifying 10 pollinator species in a week.

It’s not surveillance. It’s storytelling.

With the Petal app, you don’t just watch, you learn. Every clip comes with real-time species ID and ecosystem insights on the go.

The use cases are endless.

The feel? Surreal.

Because in a world obsessed with speed and noise, Petal listens for what most of us have forgotten to notice.
