Motorola Solutions has been selected to supply 13,000 VB400 bodycams to Her Majesty’s Prison and Probation Service officers across England and Wales.
By capturing video and audio evidence, the system will help increase officer safety and increase trust and transparency for both staff and inmates. The VB400 bodycam offers high-quality video and audio capture and is equipped with an automatic pre-recording feature, helping to ensure that every interaction is recorded from start to finish.
When off-duty, agents return the cameras to their docks, which automatically upload and store the day’s footage into the VideoManager evidence management platform, providing an intuitive, seamless workflow. Bodycam’s lightweight and rugged design, wide-angle view and 12-hour battery life help corrections officers focus on their tasks while encouraging positive interaction and behavior between officers and inmates.
