Project Description

Our delivery of law enforcement services is changing in Blacksburg, Virginia. The Blacksburg Police Department intends to embrace new technologies that are available, such as Body-worn Cameras (BWC), in-car cameras and police station videos. The Blacksburg Police Department seeks to provide its officers with the best technology that is available, including body-worn cameras. It is imperative for this department to create the ability to utilize the same technology to capture events as they happen in real-time from their perspective and to not be at the technological disadvantage of our current abilities. The changes in technology, especially the advances in mobile phone technology, have led this department to explore and research the development of a robust and integrated body-worn camera, in-car camera, and police station video program with secure and adequate storage.
