Introduction to Body-Worn Cameras

Body-worn cameras (BWCs) are compact video recording devices worn on the body, typically by law enforcement officers and security personnel. These devices capture real-time audio and visual data from the officer’s perspective, providing a transparent account of interactions between authorities and the public. Over the past decade, the adoption of BWCs has grown globally due to increasing demands for police accountability and public safety.

Purpose and Functionality

The primary purpose of body-worn cameras is to document events as they unfold, offering an unbiased video record. BWCs are designed to be lightweight, durable, and easy to use. Most models feature wide-angle lenses, HD video capabilities, night vision, and secure data storage. Some advanced versions also include GPS tracking and real-time streaming, enabling remote supervision. These capabilities make BWCs vital tools in improving behavior during encounters, de-escalating potential conflicts, and collecting evidence for investigations and court proceedings.
