Body-Worn Cameras for Criminal

AGENCY:

Notice of request for
information.
ACTION:
The National Institute of
Justice (NIJ) is soliciting information on
commercially available body-worn
cameras (BWCs) marketed for use by
criminal justice and law enforcement
agencies. These products are also
sometimes called officer-worn or
wearable cameras. The use of BWCs by
criminal justice practitioners (e.g.,
patrol, corrections, SWAT and other
tactical responders) offers potential
advantages in keeping officers safe,
enabling situational awareness,
improving community relations and
accountability, and providing evidence
for trial. The NIJ Sensor, Surveillance
and Biometric Technologies Center of
Excellence (SSBT CoE) intends to
update and revise the 2011 market
survey reference, Body Worn Camera
Information Sheet (https://goo.gl/
