When an officer hits record, the event they’re recording has presumably already started. With pre-event recording, the camera will attach the previous 20-30 seconds before the record button was hit to the footage.

The most important thing for any BWC is that it captures what it’s intended to capture. Ideally, the BWC should follow the officer’s line of sight. If the camera’s affixed to the middle of the officer’s chest and they get into a fighting stance, the camera will be pointed towards the ground. While some recommend camera’s on the ear-paddles of sunglasses or the brim of baseball caps, keep in mind those items are not affixed firmly to the officer and could be easily removed during conflict. Our recommendation is to look for a camera that is affixed to the epaulet (shoulder pad) of the uniform.

Floaters are specks, dots, lines, or webs that appear in your field of vision. Although they seem to be in front of your eye, they are floating inside the vitreous. What you see are the shadows cast on the retina by small clumps of cells.Typically, floaters are harmless in small amounts, and they will usually fade and go away over time. You will normally notice them when you’re looking at something plain, like a blank wall or the sky.However, severe floaters can be indicative of a larger problem, such as:

Dry eye can cause your eyes to feel gritty, scratchy, and irritated. Dry eye is a chronic condition that is normally caused by your eyes not producing enough quality tears for the eyes to stay lubricated.

Typically, flashes are a result of the vitreous rubbing or pulling on the retina and can happen as a result of aging. However, flashes are common with certain eye conditions such as:

As you already know, an officer’s job can be quite unpredictable, so a BWC needs to be durable to handle whatever our job throws at us. It’s important to focus on the “ruggedness” of the camera while also keeping in mind size and weight. If the camera is too heavy or big for the officer, it might not be used. Look for cameras that are sturdy, lightweight, and weatherproof. Also take into consideration the battery life and battery life-span of the camera. The battery should last an entire shift before needing to be charged, which is especially important BWC’s that have pre-event recording. The battery-lifespan is also important- how long can you go without having to replace the battery? Looking into the effectiveness of the battery after so many charges is important because it could lead to large expenses down the road.

Flashes can appear as flashing lights or lightning streaks in your field of vision. Some patients report seeing flashes similar to “seeing stars” after being hit on the head.

If you start to see flashes you haven’t seen before or have recently gotten eye surgery, it’s best to consult your optometrist.

Redness in the eye can be caused by many different conditions and injuries that can lead to irritation, swelling, and vision loss. Typically, the eyes’ small blood vessels will become inflamed, making the whites of the eyes seem pink or red.Red eyes can be an indication that your eyes are irritated.

The amount of internal storage space on the camera is important as it will determine how often the footage needs to be downloaded. Most cameras have between 16-64GB of storage on them, with about 1GB being used per hour. Of course this also depends on the resolution of the camera. The higher the resolution, the larger file size the footage will be.

Keeping all of those considerations in mind, we also compiled a list of cameras that we think fit most or all of the criteria mentioned. Take a look at the graphic below.

While video footage is good, context is even better. A BWC with a microphone is more powerful than just the footage itself. However, some cameras will not have the microphone on for the pre-event recording.

The bigger question is how are you going to manage the thousands and thousands of hours of footage and store it all? Look for solutions that offer intuitive software for managing your data and are partnered or offer CJIS compliant cloud storage.  It’s important to note that while many agencies like to store all their data on their own network, it may make better fiscal sense to opt for cloud storage given its relative low cost and high security.

Look for a solution partnered with a good cloud storage service. You will need a place to organize and keep all that footage!
