‘Smile You’re On Camera’

Like it or not, our lives are being monitored by more and

more video cameras. Convergence (voice/data/video) is

a different animal now as technology makes strides with

wireless, biometrics, bandwidth, interoperability, storage

and retrieval. Privacy concerns are a legitimate issue,

but there is no denying the positive results with regard

to public safety and welfare. This session discusses the

latest trends, technologies and approaches being used

in the public sector.
