Body-Worn Camera

Body-worn cameras have become essential tools in public safety, enhancing communication, coordination and situational awareness during incidents. Unlike traditional “camera-only” products, we took an innovative approach by using a fully functional smartphone as the recording device. The solution not only offers all the features of a standard body camera but also delivers advanced capabilities beyond simple video recording.

Smartphone In-Vehicle Camera

An innovative alternative to traditional dash camera systems that takes advantage of smartphone technology to enhance responder safety and efficiency. Multiple automatic activation options ensure dash cameras are recording when they need to be. These include lightbar activation, speed-threshold activation and linked camera activation with a BWC.

Agencies can easily manage their body-worn and dash camera footage using a single evidence management platform. The dash camera system is simple to use and install by leveraging existing ports and wiring. It offers significant cost savings over existing dash camera products.
