Advanced Body-Worn Cameras

Axon Launches New Body Camera with Added Features

— April 18, 2023 — Tech
Global public safety technology company Axon has released its latest advanced body-worn camera called the Axon Body 4. Rick Smith, Founder and CEO of Axon, said: "Axon Body 4 provides far more than just a camera. It has the ability to be a communications beacon. We believe Axon Body 4 will be a powerful tool in public safety and security that can unlock new levels of transparency, flexibility, increased situational awareness, and real-time support."

The Axon Body 4 contains several new upgraded features, such as its bi-directional communication capabilities for live streaming to multiple viewers in real-time with the camera wearer. The camera also has a new Watch Me button that allows officers to signal for additional support along with location and critical alerts displayed on Axon Respond. Another standout feature that the camera has is it can conveniently connect an additional point-of-view camera module, which can be handheld or attached to the police officer's head, shoulders, the brim of the hat, or sunglasses for multiple perspectives. Consumers can contact Axon for pricing plans to fit their agency's needs.
