Watauga Police Department
Testing New Camera Technology
 The Watauga
Police Department is
testing a new
body-worn video system called
Vievu. Historically,
the police department's interaction
with the public has been captured by
a dash camera mounted inside a
police vehicle. Video obtained
by a dash camera is stationary and
only depicts what happens directly
in front of the patrol car.
The Vievu camera attaches to an
officer's uniform and gives them the
ability to record up to four (4)
hours of footage at a time.
There is no rewind or erase
capability and the video is
downloaded onto a computer where it
cannot be altered. At the
conclusion of the testing period, a
decision will be made as to whether
or not the Watauga Police Department
will purchase the system.
Homework
Help Center Now Open
Tuesdays from 3:45 p.m. - 5:45 p.m.
