The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) has disclosed images and movies taken by the JEM Internal Ball Camera called "Int-Ball"－its first camera drone that can record video while moving in space under remote control from the ground.

The recorded images and videos can be checked in real time by flight controllers and researchers on the ground, and then be fed back to the onboard crew. It aims to realize "zero" photographing time by the onboard crew in the end.
