Abstract
In accordance with embodiments disclosed herein, there are provided mechanisms, methods, systems, and apparatuses for capturing and archiving firearm event telemetry and environmental conditions. According to a particularly described embodiment, there is, for example, a method executing within a device having at least a processor and a memory therein and being physically coupled to a weapon, wherein the method includes operating a proximity sensor at the weapon, the proximity sensor to trigger an activation event upon removal of the weapon from a weapon holster; detecting the activation event and triggering event archiving; archiving event data by storing event data to the memory of the device; and uploading the event data to a remote storage separate and distinct from the device. The weapon may be a lethal or a non-lethal weapon. In a related embodiment, there is a device capable for mounting to weapon, the device including at least a proximity sensor to trigger an event upon change in status of the weapon from a holster or to a holster; an audio capture device; a video capture device; a solid state memory to store captured audio, video, and event telemetry data; and a wireless communications interface from the device to a remote location having storage capability distinct from the device. Other related embodiments are described.
