With built-in AI assistance, the Argus BWC will respond automatically to key phrases or detect events happening in real time. This means that Argus will start recording once it hears common first responder phrases, their rapid movements, or firearm discharge. The Argus BWC is built to withstand the toughest conditions with IP67 and MIL STD 810G construction. The camera is also equipped with a powerful battery that lasts up to 12 hours and is hot-swappable, so the camera will continue recording while the battery is being changed out. In addition, it has 4G LTE connectivity for live streaming and real-time event alerts while in the field.

The Argus Body Worn Camera comes with a companion mobile app, Argus Insight, available on Android and iOS. Users can review footage in the field, classify evidence, annotate, and add bookmarks, making it easy to manage evidence data.

As part of the Argus Body Worn Camera suite, the company is also launching Argus Data Vault (ADV), an evidence management system designed for administrators. ADV makes it easy for users to classify and share evidence and features a one-touch facial video redaction powered by artificial intelligence. Administrators will be able to monitor the location of all Argus devices in the field, as well as live stream footage from those cameras.

"Argus Body Worn Camera is an innovative and reliable solution that enables law enforcement professionals to have a better understanding of critical situations," says Tim Staes, video engineering manager. "With the introduction of ADV and Argus Insight, we are providing a comprehensive solution that is easy to use, manage, and share. We are proud to offer this exceptional technology to our customers, and we look forward to seeing the positive impact it will have on the communities they serve."


Argus Body Worn Camera will be available soon for purchase. For more information about the Argus Body Worn Camera, ADV, and Argus Insight, visit www.kustomsignals.com/argus
