DOES YOUR BODY WORN CAMERA IMPROVE OFFICER SAFETY?

Posted on by Mihir Mehta

17-08-2016

All cameras can record evidence, but what body camera records the Officers point of view and improves officer safety while de-escalating confrontational situations?  At Reveal, we build solutions that are both innovative and proven effective in the field.  The Reveal body camera was designed with feedback from law enforcement worldwide, which resulted in a front facing screen and articulating camera head.

The public is able to clearly see themselves on the screen, adding transparency to the situation. Our customers have told us that having the front facing screen brings a new dynamic to the interaction between the public and law enforcement.  No other body worn solution is as proven to increase officer safety.  The Reveal body camera is also flexible – the screen and LEDs can be turned off for those situations requiring no illumination capability.

SAN RAMON POLICE OFFICERS BEGIN WEARING BODY CAMERAS WITH A TWIST

Posted on by Mihir Mehta

09-09-2016

This news piece is found on the NBC Bay Area Website

Police officers in several Bay Area cities are starting to get used to the newest piece of equipment in their arsenal: a Reveal body-worn camera. But the devices being used by cops in one East Bay city are sporting a unique feature.

San Ramon became the first city in California to purchase a body-worn video system equipped with an outward-facing playback display that shows what is being recorded.

San Ramon officers are already being trained on how to use the camera.

“I think it keeps everybody accountable,” motorcycle Officer Bill Doherty said.

Doherty got to test the device during a recent traffic stop, informing the driver that he activated the camera when he made the stop. The driver is able to watch the video as it records.

The cameras already are popular with European law enforcement agencies.

At the end of a shift, Doherty and other officers place their cameras in a smart dock, and the video is uploaded to a cloud-based server, where it will stay for a year – or indefinitely if the video is used as evidence.

“From that point, everything is managed through an evidence management software,” Lt. Denton Carlson said.

Carlson said the department felt these type of cameras offer more transparency. As for those concerned about privacy, Carlson said there is a legal standard for public places.

“If you’re in a public place, you’re freely able to record what’s going on in that place,” he said.

The city bought 40 cameras to be distributed to officers over the next few months.

POLICE BODY CAMERAS ‘CUT COMPLAINTS AGAINST OFFICERS’ – REVEAL DISCUSSES CAMBRIDGE UNI REPORT ON BBC

Posted on by Mihir Mehta
29-09-2016

A BBC news report published this morning shared findings from a study on BWV conducted by the Cambridge University. It found that complaints by members of the public against officers fell by 93% over 12 months compared with the year before. Police Body Cameras

Reveal participated in a BBC news discussion with journalist Victoria Derbyshire around the positive impact of BWV – watch it here.

Almost 2,000 officers across four UK forces and two US police departments were monitored for the project.

Dr Barak Ariel, who led the research, said no other policing measure had led to such “radical” changes.

The experiment involved police from Northern Ireland, the West Midlands, West Yorkshire, and Cambridgeshire, as well as the Rialto and Ventura police departments in California, working for a total of almost 1.5 million hours.

The findings, published in the journal Criminal Justice and Behaviour, showed there were 113 complaints made against officers during the year trial period, compared with 1,539 in the 12 months before – a reduction of 93%.

Dr Ariel, who is based at the Cambridge Institute of Criminology, said: “I cannot think of any [other] single intervention in the history of policing that dramatically changed the way that officers behave, the way that suspects behave, and the way they interact with each other.”

He said the results indicated both police and the public were adjusting their behaviour.

“Once [the public] are aware they are being recorded, once they know that everything they do is caught on tape, they will undoubtedly change their behaviour because they don’t want to get into trouble. Individual officers become more accountable, and modify their behaviour accordingly, while the more disingenuous complaints from the public fall by the wayside once footage is likely to reveal them as frivolous.”
