What is a Body Cam?
Body cameras, or body cams, are small, wearable video recording devices typically used by law enforcement, security personnel, and professionals who need to document events from their perspective. These cameras are designed to be worn on the body, often attached to a uniform or helmet, and are capable of recording video and audio in real time. Body cams are commonly used to provide evidence in interactions, improve accountability, and ensure transparency, especially in law enforcement. They often come with features such as wide-angle lenses, night vision, and long battery life, ensuring clear footage in various environments. Beyond law enforcement, body cameras are increasingly used in industries like healthcare, security, and journalism for personal safety and documentation purposes.
