What appear to be balls of light roughly the size of a standard Blaseball are actually a type of drone with its particles shifted slightly out of phase from the rest of reality. As a result of their unique composition, Jackers can "haunt" some types of technology, gaining rudimentary control of it.

Rumors about Origins

They are theorized to have been created as a sort of cataloging system, meant to find tech, interface with it, record findings, and return to base. The sheer variety and quantity of data observed in the onboard intelligence of captured units, however, suggests that their original intent has been lost to accumulated centuries of successive hauntings.
