Résumé
"At the request of the Chief of Police for the Orlando Police Department (OPD) a study was conducted on the use of in-car cameras and body worn cameras for law enforcement use. The purpose of this study was to determine if the Orlando Police Department should invest in camera systems for officers, either in-car cameras or body worn cameras; and if so, which camera system is most suitable for the agency. The study focused on the history of camera use, what other agencies are doing, current literature, and analyzed camera equipment and cost. The following research questions were answered by the study: 1) Why use cameras at all? 2) What are other agencies doing? 3) What are the implementation issues? 4) Which camera type(s) is most useful for OPD’s needs?"--Page 3.
