ICOP and Sprint Team to Bring the First Ever Community-Centric Surveillance and Communications Solution to Cities Nationwide
LENEXA and OVERLAND PARK, Kan., May 7 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Imagine the unimaginable: A hostage crisis in your community, and law enforcement agencies have limited visibility into the actual events occurring within the building. With a new live streaming solution, it is now possible for first responders to get real-time video and audio access to critical on-site intelligence, empowering them with the specific details about the situation and making it easier for them to respond quickly and potentially save lives, minimize collateral damage and optimize the resulting outcome.
In a continued effort to enhance security across U.S. communities, ICOP Digital, Inc. and Sprint today announced their agreement to deliver the industry's first fully integrated, community-centric surveillance and communications solution created to materially elevate awareness, response and recovery related to any crisis event. Both companies will co-market the ICOP Solution(TM) to both the public and private sectors, with a goal of promoting community-wide adoption of the technology for deployment in local first responder agencies, schools, banks, commercial and municipal buildings and government facilities.
The ICOP Solution is enabled by the Sprint Mobile(R) Broadband Network, optimized by EV-DO Revision A, the nation's largest wireless high speed network -- reaching more than 206 million people across the country. This solution delivers live streaming video and audio to and from first responder vehicles to their headquarters and Sprint smartphones, laptops and other web- enabled computing devices. In addition to live streaming video and audio, this solution provides access to critical documents, such as site maps, floor plans, and other relevant data (stored on the local site server), vital to first responders when responding to an incident. For the first time ever, digital surveillance solutions makes it possible to secure the people, assets and profits in the community, allowing first responders to optimize the management and outcome of any security breach, crisis situation or crime-in- process. Never before has this level of community-centric surveillance and communications capability been possible.
ICOP Chairman and CEO Dave Owen noted, "ICOP is pleased that Sprint shares our vision for advancing the security of our nation's communities. This partnership represents a critical inflexion point in ICOP's efforts to advance and optimize the safety, effectiveness and positive impact of first responders, and one that is certain to translate into enhanced security solutions for our customers and result in resounding success as our relationship matures.
Comprised of a suite of integrated products and solutions pioneered by ICOP Digital, the ICOP Solution includes the ICOP Model 20/20-W(R), the leading digital in-car video recorder system, and the ICOP Guardian(TM), a stationary IP camera that records high quality video on a local server, and is capable of remote and on-site activation using several triggers. This total solution also incorporates ICOP LIVE(TM) which enables live streaming of high quality video and audio over the Sprint Mobile(R) Broadband Network to first responders and tactical response coordinators that has been captured on ICOP Model 20/20-W digital in-car video systems, as well as on the stationary ICOP Guardian IP cameras installed in public and commercial facilities.
"The Sprint Mobile(R) Broadband Network and the ICOP Solution offer a powerful and winning value proposition for community leaders and first responders -- providing first responders with the means to take more proactive, informed action in crisis situations; enhancing the safety of officers and citizens, alike; and promoting greater local community security and protection," says Chris Hackett, vice president of public sector sales for Sprint. "Our partnership with ICOP Digital is a testimonial of Sprint's continued commitment towards supporting the law enforcement industry nationwide. We are pleased ICOP chose Sprint as its preferred provider, to integrate our high speed wireless technology with their innovative surveillance and communications solutions."
On Sunday, May 13, 2007, ICOP LIVE will be used to stream live video of the 12th Annual Law Ride, a 1,000+ motorcycle procession from RFK Stadium to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial, part of the National Police Week celebrations in Washington D.C.
