Ark City PD wearing body cameras

The Arkansas City Police Department announced that the agency’s commissioned officers are now equipped with Utility, Inc.’s patented Eos by UtilityTM body-worn camera technology. The technologies facilitate policy-based, high-speed data collection to deliver instant, clear, and secure intelligence to support increased transparency and accountability between the Arkansas City Police Department and the community. The contract is for approximately $150,000. The officers are outfitted with cameras that are embedded in the officers’ uniforms to prevent them from detaching. The camera technology includes a two-minute buffer, which allows for capturing two minutes of video before the camera is activated, along with automatic, policy-based recording functionalities designed to remove the burden from the officers to turn on the cameras.
