(COLORADO SPRINGS) — The Colorado Springs Police Department (CSPD) is taking a major step forward in modernizing its operations with a new body-worn camera system that law enforcement says will boost efficiency, improve response times, and continue providing exceptional service to the community. Over the past year, the department has implemented several technological advancements, including the Colorado Springs Real-Time Crime Center, with this latest development representing a major step forward in the future of policing. CSPD debuts real-time crime center for enhanced safety The new body-worn camera system, developed by Axon Enterprise, includes several advanced features designed to streamline operations and enhance overall effectiveness. Here's a look at some of the key upgrades. Axon Body 4 Cameras: These state-of-the-art body-worn cameras offer improved video and audio quality, ensuring more reliable documentation of officer interactions. Livestream Capabilities: CSPD officers can now live stream footage from body-worn cameras, fleet vehicle cameras, and even drones, enhancing real-time decision-making and transparency. Digital Evidence System: A new platform for managing and storing video, audio, and other digital evidence makes it easier for CSPD to process and access critical materials. Automated Transcription: Body-worn camera footage and other video/audio evidence can now be automatically transcribed, saving officers valuable time on administrative tasks. AI-Assisted Report Writing: One of the most controversial features is Axon Draft One, an artificial intelligence tool that helps officers by generating draft police reports from body-worn cameras and interview footage. Early results suggest a significant reduction in the time it takes to complete reports. The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) has expressed concerns nationwide about the use of artificial intelligence in police reporting systems. Specifically, they are worried about the potential for bias in AI-generated police reports, particularly when companies like Axon are using AI to draft narratives based on body camera footage. FOX21 has requested a statement from the ACLU and is waiting to hear back. CSPD believes the integration of AI into police operations is a step toward modernizing law enforcement practices. CSPD Chief Adrian Vasquez and Commander John Koch will introduce the new technology to the media on Wednesday, Jan 22. FOX21 will update this article following Wednesday's meeting.
