Axon, despite having just 30 years of existence, became popular in Brazil about two years ago. When the audience was speaking of this subject in private parties, the brand became a political address in the government debate.
A computer receptor has been able to carry a camera for 12 hours with no interruption. A female policeman goes to the bathroom and is filmed for 12 hours. This is impossible even said the then-selected candidate Marcio Franca (PSB) on the show “Rada Viva” on TV Cultura.
Even the president himself, Tarcisio de Freitas, negotiated a halt in the police bodycams by saying he’d definitely remove the police bodycams. What is this camera? In the interview with Jovem Pan on the campaign, the police are in a disbelief of the bandits.

After she was elected by Tarcisio, she backed down and promised to keep her policies. The camera issue, I was very critical in the campaign, now lets move on. Let’s keep on. We can see the result and see what changes we can make, he mentioned on CNN.
According to an official survey conducted by the Getulio Vargas Foundation (FGV), the portable operation camera (COPs) reduced the number of deaths caused by police intervention by 57 percent, comparative to the average period of the previous year’s average time of the implantation of the equipment, in the case of the Civil Service of Sao Paulo.
According to the FGV, 104 deaths were avoided, and there was a 63 per cent drop in the number of incidents in the first 14 months of using the technology.

O TechWorld spoke to Arthur Bernardes, senior bank manager at Axon in Brazil, who defended the bodycam as a questionable weapon.
Everybody has a phone in the pocket, which, in some way, is the camera, and they can take the police action. The police are never exposed, but fact is, the side is unknown. So body camera does just that. It’s to give the truth and the truth about the most important actor of that interaction, the fact of a new idea and the perspective of the intense events that the police take, he defends.
How is the camera on the MP2?
A PM in SP uses the Axon Body 3, which is used by around 7,000 policemen around the world. It was adopted in the Olho Vivo project conceived in 2021 by the Sao Paulo security agency. There was precisely the intent to provide a guarantee for the service of the agent and the population.
The Axon Body 3 offers 100 ph video resolution, up to 12 hours battery life, 64GB of storage, IP67 is rated (protects against dust and prevents a dip in water up to a meter deep), Multi-channel audio -mic, live maps, LTE and many more. It’s going to be interesting when technology gets old. Wi-Fi will be used in places where mobile network coverage is precarious.
Bernardes explains that all the resulting parameters of configuration and camera activation are defined by the institution that hired the service. In order to obtain a PM, the camera is turned off when the police responds to a report sent by the Military Police Operations Center (COPOM). The institution also standardized that recordings are required in situations where the use of force is necessary. All images are classified and are compared to other cameras.

One of the systems is Axon Evidence, a cloud-based structure that hid all recorded audio and video materials. Using cryptography, the platform executes a complete control of the data (either by recording any video or by a written authorization, without allowing for the search of its data for dates, names, location, etc.) and because of that, it serves as a legal material in situations where prosecution is commenced.
There is also the Axon Pitch, which combines sensors to trigger commands in a lot of delicate situations like an exchange of fire or pursuit. With Respond, you can easily meet the demands of the patrol officers and make the deployment quicker.
Cameras are comparable to car insurance. You don’t expect to see an accident, but if you do, he’s on your own to protect you. Axon body 3 has bad eyes but the officer doesn’t expect to make a confrontation, but is protected by the recordings, adds Bernardes, who answered questions about security guards who didn’t see it with good eyes.
The PM of Sao Paulo used the video capture in his actions as a guide for entertainment and informative purposes. One’s YouTube channel already has more than 800 thousand subscribers and has more than 41 million followers. Below is an example of a police action that axon body 3 has recorded by and was transformed into content on YouTube.
The future of the army says that the defense isn’t on a radar.
The Atlas is a non-lethal electroshock weapon that populized the world’s brand with several other products. The equipment is in its seventh version, but it is prone to the fire at short distances, and also the attack of electricity darts that cripple the affected body region.
Taser 7 even has rechargeable batteries, mobile app to inventory management, automatic firmware update, natural green laser in sight and much more.
The Axon Air is an integrated drone platform that provides public safety. Axon evidence provides a non-living cloud of risk scenarios and data management.

Bernardes argues that aviation can be the future of security forces. In a scenario where there is a more prepared platform of docks where drones can land and recharge their batteries, they may work as an alternative.
Drones provide a much greater control over range and reaction time as they are an advanced lens of special activity where you should be careful not to err on what’s happening. If there’s a heavy traffic jam, they can be sent as a response, as he illustrates.
Bernardes doesn’t rule out that Axon will offer two products, the taser and the Axon Air from next year, to Sao Paulo’s government. He said that in spite of the transition, there’s no talking with public agents, since in most countries the governors will change starting January.
The company Axon is a technical company, so it is neutral. We’ll participate in bids if allowed by the specifications and the bidding law. I assure you that if you don’t fulfill these requirements, you’ll take part.

O TechWorld contacted the public security department of Sao Paulo (SSP-SP), and asked for an assessment of police officers’ body cameras. In a note, the entity explained that after the implementation of the bodycams, the number of people in the United States has dropped 65.6% from bodycams to bodycams.
In contrast to duty police deaths dropped from 14 to 4 among the dead. The gun sales rose by 41, the 0-60 battalions and 4 police training units used the 10.1 cameras, added the sSP.
The album also informs him that it performs a gain of $7.3 billion per month with the solution. The budget also covers the storage of videos in the cloud.

Lastly, the director of the committee says the aforementioned survey confirms a strong improvement in the police productivity in these units, with no other crimes to go against, among other things.
