Axon Enterprise, Inc. AXON recently secured a federal government deal to deliver its premier Axon Body 4 body-worn cameras and digital evidence management system — Axon Evidence, to Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP). Once deployed, the company’s Body 4 cameras and Axon Evidence will serve more than 10,000 RCMP officers across rural, urban and remote areas of Canada.

Axon introduced its next-generation body-worn camera, Axon Body 4, in April 2023. With upgraded features such as a bi-directional communications facility and a point-of-view camera module option, this body camera offers enhanced video quality and communication capabilities to law enforcement agencies. 

The Axon Ecosystem helps streamline security operations through a connected network of hardware, software and sensor solutions. Axon Body 4 cameras can be seamlessly integrated with Axon Evidence, which allows safety officers to upload video to a secure cloud environment. Equipped with AI-powered tools and innovative technologies, Axon Evidence enables officers to trace, transcribe and redact crucial footage seamlessly, saving their time in reviewing evidence.
