"The problem with the cameras we've been using in law enforcement is that they tend to be affixed to a stationary mount in our vehicle. While we wear a body microphone, if we wander out of the narrow viewing field of the camera - usually aimed out in front of the vehicle - our audio will be recorded, but our video won't. And, if we wander too far away from the vehicle, the audio is lost as well. There ought to be some way to get a recording of what we see, wherever we are. Now there is. It's called AXON, and it's from TASER International."
