Safariland VIEVU Awarded Exclusive Distribution Agreement for Digital Ally's VuLink Car-Based Camera Auto-Activation System

PR Newswire

ONTARIO, Calif., Oct. 20, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Safariland® VIEVU®, a leader in body-worn video, and a brand of The Safariland Group ("Safariland"), a leading global provider of safety and survivability products designed for the public safety, military, professional and outdoor markets, today announced a newly formed partnership with Digital Ally® for an exclusive distribution agreement of Digital Ally's VuLink® car based auto-activation system, which includes Digital Ally's patented activation technology. This system will allow Safariland VIEVU ("VIEVU") and Digital Ally to implement a car-based auto-activation system that initiates recording of VIEVU's LE4 and LE5™ body-worn cameras. By further automating the camera activation, it will result in greater efficiency and safety for law enforcement and the community.

"This partnership brings together years of proven expertise from the most respected brands in law enforcement," said Stan Ross, CEO of Digital Ally. "We are pleased that others are recognizing the importance and value of our products and intellectual properties, especially our patented VuLink auto-activation technology. We are excited to partner with VIEVU to give them the products and technology they need to bring this capability to VIEVU's customers."

The Digital Ally VuLink system wirelessly sends a signal to automatically activate an officer's body-worn camera based on various actions with the vehicle, such as a siren being activated, lights being turned on, or a door opening. The VuLink system, when connected to the VIEVU body-worn camera will improve consistency in camera activation by automatically turning on the officer's camera based on agency-selected vehicle triggers. The automatic activation will significantly reduce situations where body-worn camera footage is not available because an officer forgot to activate the camera. 

"This partnership with Digital Ally recognizes their patented auto-activation technology and demonstrates how innovation leaders such as Safariland, VIEVU, and Digital Ally can work together to deliver superior solutions for law enforcement," said Sean McCarthy who leads VIEVU and Safariland's wearable technology platform.  "By gaining exclusive distribution rights to Digital Ally's patented VuLink technology, we will complete a VIEVU platform of automatic triggers to activate a body-worn camera at the most critical moments: when an officer exits a vehicle and when an officer draws a firearm from the Safariland CAS™ auto-activation holster."
