A new surveillance revolution: Body worn cameras and public services.
summary
Body‑worn video appears across police, transport and event teams with realtime live‑streaming to command rooms, local cloud or on‑prem backends, GPS overlays and VMS integration; one regulator notes a 22,000‑camera police procurement and a traffic team reports a 95% drop in verbal abuse after rollout. Practical problems include weak batteries, clipped audio, lost SD cards, lack of encryption, incompatible formats and ad hoc download workflows; public records laws push footage onto YouTube, creating major privacy and informant‑safety risks.
