Columbus-based Sound Communications is working to help bridge that trust gap with a range of chest or shoulder mounted body cameras for police and sheriffs deputies. The cameras record every public encounter by a law enforcement officer, providing transparency and rebuilding trust between citizens and police departments.
Sound Communications is getting a significant response and over a dozen Ohio law enforcement agencies have requested demonstrations of this new body-worn camera. By offering this new and needed product to their line-up of public safety hardware and software, Sound Communications is able to meet these demands with state-of-the-art technology.
“Our communities are much safer when the police and the public view each other as partners and not adversaries,” says Sound Communications President Darin Cooper. “If a better, more reliable record of interactions between police and citizens helps create and strengthen trust, we all win. I believe the use of body cameras by police officers can be a great tool.”
