Footage from a body camera only matters if it holds up. Files that can be copied, edited, or accessed by the wrong person get challenged – and the recording becomes worthless. This body camera encrypts every file on-device with RSA + AES256 dual encryption. Nobody opens, edits, or transfers a recording without authorisation. The 2-minute pre-record buffer captures what happened before you pressed the button – so the lead-up to an incident is already in the file.
Key Features
- Every File Encrypted On-Device - RSA + AES256 dual encryption locks every recording the moment it's written to storage. Files can't be opened, played, or edited on the camera itself – authorised transfer only.
- 128GB Built-In Storage - No SD card to remove, swap, or lose. All footage stays inside the camera on locked internal memory. Over 16 hours of recording at 1080p before you need to offload.
- 2-Minute Pre-Record Buffer - The camera buffers video continuously while powered on. Press record and the previous 2 minutes are saved as part of the file. The start of the incident is already captured.
- 4K Video at 30fps - Crop into any frame and still read faces, badges, and fine print. 48MP photos document evidence at full resolution mid-recording.
- WiFi File Transfer - Camera creates its own WiFi hotspot. Connect your phone, review footage on screen, and transfer files – no cables, no removing the camera from your vest.
- Holster Auto-Record - Compatible with the Bluetooth holster trigger (sold separately). Pull the camera from the holster and recording starts instantly. No fumbling for buttons during an escalation.
- Docking Station Included - End of shift, camera goes on the dock. Charges via USB-C contact points – no cable to plug in every time.
- IR Night Vision - Two large 850nm infrared LEDs for clear footage in zero light. Auto-switches in low-light conditions – no manual toggle needed on dark shifts.
Who It's For
Security Guards – Incident Evidence
Aggressive confrontation at a venue. You press record – but the pre-record buffer already captured the 2 minutes before it escalated. Every file is encrypted and stamped with your User ID, date, and time. When the footage goes to management or police, it hasn't been touched – and the encryption backs that up.
Lone Workers – Personal Protection
Home visits, site inspections, client meetings where you're on your own. If an allegation is made, the encrypted footage is the only account that can't be altered after the fact. 128GB stores weeks of shift recordings without clearing storage. WiFi transfer lets you send a specific file to your supervisor from the field.
Transport and Logistics – Dispute Resolution
Customer claims the delivery was mishandled or the driver was aggressive. The encrypted, timestamped footage resolves it in minutes – not weeks of back-and-forth. The holster trigger means drivers record every delivery interaction without stopping to press buttons.
How It Works
- Clip - Two mounts included – a belt clip and a rotatable crocodile clip for shirt pockets, vests, and MOLLE webbing. Adjust the angle to cover your field of view.
- Record - Press the front button or pull from the Bluetooth holster. The 2-minute buffer is saved automatically. Every file gets encrypted and stamped with your User ID, date, and time.
- Transfer - Connect your phone to the camera's WiFi hotspot to review and download footage. Or plug into a computer via USB-C – files appear as a standard drive.

Lawful Use
Legal for personal recording and workplace documentation where you have the property owner's or employer's permission. Video recording in public spaces is generally permitted in Australia. Audio recording laws vary by state – some states require all-party consent before recording conversations. Check your state's Surveillance Devices Act before enabling audio recording.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What does the encryption actually do?
Every recording is encrypted the moment it's saved using RSA + AES256 dual encryption. Files can't be opened, played, copied, or edited on the camera. You transfer them through the app or USB – the authorised process decrypts them for playback. This protects chain of custody from the camera to wherever the footage ends up.
2. How does the 2-minute pre-record work?
While the camera is powered on, it continuously buffers video. When you press record or pull from the holster, the previous 2 minutes are saved as part of the recording file. You get the lead-up to the incident even though you hadn't pressed anything yet. Configurable to 120, 60, or 30 seconds.
3. How do I transfer footage to my phone?
Turn on the camera's WiFi hotspot. Connect your phone to it – no external WiFi needed. Open the app, browse recordings, and download the files you need. For bulk transfer, plug into a computer via USB-C – files show up as a standard drive.
4. How long does the battery last?
Over 16 hours at 1080p with WiFi turned off. Higher resolutions and active WiFi reduce runtime. For most single-shift users, one charge covers the full day.
5. Is the footage court-admissible?
The camera stamps every file with User ID, date, and time. RSA + AES256 encryption prevents tampering. Files can't be edited on the device. This supports chain of custody requirements – but admissibility ultimately depends on your jurisdiction and how the footage is handled after transfer.
