View the 2021 Patrol Eyes CatalogSpotlight: PatrolEyes dedicated to providing affordable body cam solutions for every dept.'s budget
September 3rd, 2020
1. What was the inspiration behind starting your company?
PatrolEyes was started because we saw an opportunity in the body camera industry that was not being fulfilled. Many cameras were very expensive or large and bulky at that time. We developed an
affordable solution for departments that would allow every department to deploy body cameras — regardless of budget.
2. What is your signature product and how does it work?
Our PatrolEyes edge camera is our latest offering. The edge uses the latest in compression technology to save on storage space. It also captures a higher frame rate than most models and records
high-speed action, which can be slowed down frame-by-frame to provide accurate information. The pre-record option can also offer up to one minute before an officer presses the record button, which is now being
required in most states.
3. What makes your company unique?
We sell several body camera models and each have their own unique features — giving customers the ultimate choice. Some cameras are extremely lightweight while others have a super wide angle lens or
removable battery option. We also offer local storage options for digital evidence management while other companies only offer cloud options.

March 9th, 2020
Ada, Michigan Globally recognized as a leader in body worn technology; PatrolEyes has announced the release of their new EDGE body camera. The EDGE release comes as a direct result of the endless effort by PatrolEyes to create a device for law enforcement with the best value, most features, and exceptional performance rating in the industry.

"Not only did we improve the compression, but we've also increased frame rates up to 60 frames per second and increased pre-record times which are essential in the body camera industry."
