Streamlining operations, enhancing safety and improving communication: the possibilities are endless with Samsung\u2019s foldable devices<\/mark><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Equipping US Police With the Technology To Help Protect the Public<\/strong><\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Police officers and law enforcement workers deal with turbulent, fast-paced and often dangerous situations on a daily basis. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, new technologies can support such jobs by significantly streamlining activities, enable workers to carry out tasks more effectively and even improve safety and transparency. It\u2019s a time when the right tools can truly change the day-to-day experience of public service professionals, consumers and employees for the better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Transforming operations in this way was the goal for the Kimberling City Police and the Indian Point Police in Missouri. These forces conducted a pilot program two years ago to test out new devices to help improve daily operations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Officers were equipped with Samsung Galaxy Z Flip series smartphones1 to help them find efficiencies in their work through several methods. This included their use as a body-worn camera to promote transparency, marking the first time that police have used a foldable device in this way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fast forward approximately six months and the pilot was complete with officers reporting successful results. With the effectiveness of the devices established, Samsung explored ways to broaden their usage to even more police officers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Galaxy Z Flip devices were then expanded to the San Benito and the Craighead County Sheriff\u2019s departments, bringing the benefits of this technology to even more public service professionals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why Samsung\u2019s <\/a><\/strong>Foldables Are the Right Devices for the Job<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Galaxy Z Flip devices were chosen in part due to their unique form factor, which provides a lightweight, compact design. To ensure the devices were made with the best quality and as fit-for-purpose as possible, Samsung collaborated with Visual Labs, a leading body camera solution provider.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They worked together to customize the device, including remapping the external volume button to start the body camera recordings in urgent situations without the need to turn on the display or open the smartphone. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The body camera function can also be activated by detecting high speed while pursuing a suspect or when connected to the dash-cam solution, through the activation of emergency lights. These features provide police officers with additional methods to promptly begin recording their surroundings, enhancing their ability to capture critical events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Samsung <\/a><\/strong>Galaxy Z Flip series\u2019 works well as a body camera due to its compact and foldable form factor, allowing for easy attachment to police uniforms and outer carriers. Its high-quality camera ensures a clear and detailed video recording, while its durable construction makes it suitable for demanding environments. Additionally, the long battery life and advanced features like stabilization and quick access to recordings make it an optimal choice for body camera use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The result is a unique, all-in-one solution that provides efficiencies no other smartphone can offer. The Galaxy Z Flip\u2019s inherent versatility makes it extremely adaptable and appealing across numerous industries \u2013 for the police, it brings expanded on-the-job abilities, improved situational awareness and enhanced communication and engagement across teams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Streamlining Operations for Increased Efficiency and Safety<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In their use as body-worn cameras, Galaxy Z Flip devices can help improve evidence gathering and transparency by clearly documenting details of arrests and other interactions. With the support of Visual Labs technology, video data can also be stored in the cloud instantaneously, allowing footage to be livestreamed to the police force\u2019s command center and viewed in real time. This plays a key role in keeping colleagues unified and informed regarding team operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In one easy-to-use device that combines several technologies, the Galaxy Z Flip additionally functions as a digital camera needed for taking pictures of crime scene evidence; an audio recorder for witness interviews; and a personnel locator for tracking an officer\u2019s location through GPS. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The device also allows phone calls, emails and text messaging. It can support other agency-specific applications such as computer-aided dispatch, criminal justice database queries and even push-to-talk, helping law enforcement log crimes and activity in real time and while on the move.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All this adds up to a level of utility that surpasses single-purpose devices, helping to keep officers safe and improving their productivity. Enveloping the device features is the sleek design of the Galaxy Z Flip series, ideal for busy police officers because it allows them to quickly and easily mount the device on their uniform. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This makes it much easier to use than traditional bar-shaped devices and minimizes the amount of equipment they need to carry, all without compromising on performance. The device also boasts advantages in maintenance costs compared to other body-worn cameras, which is a crucial consideration and benefit in distributing devices to numerous officers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kimberling City Police Department Chief of Police, Todd Lemoine said, \u201cWe chose the Galaxy Z Flip due to the wide array of benefits it brings to our team, and we\u2019re delighted to say that we\u2019ve had incredible results. We\u2019ve seen response and investigation efforts be significantly improved by its overall ease of use and ability to enhance communications across teams. These devices put powerful resources right at the fingertips of our force.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Future Supported by Innovations Built To Enhance Workforce Operations<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The benefits of versatile technologies like the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip series are significant, and they don\u2019t stop there. Samsung is dedicated to continually developing its product offerings to support consumers, businesses and public services with cutting-edge innovations that precisely meet customer needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through bespoke and optimized devices, the possibilities of what can be achieved are endless. The successful implementation of Samsung\u2019s solutions in the Kimberling City Police and the Indian Point Police have been so positive that the solutions are now being extended to 25 metro police departments across five states, furthering Samsung\u2019s commitment to bringing tools that can boost success for even more police authorities in the US.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
