Abstract
A law enforcement belt with an audio/video recording system is provided. The system includes a belt maintaining a plurality of receptacles, each receptacle configured to hold a law enforcement device, and a recording device configured to receive signals from the plurality of receptacles, the recording device configured to continuously record audio and/or video, thereby providing an audio and/or video recording. Removal of one law enforcement device from one receptacle provides a signal to the recording device interpreted by the recording device as a critical event indication, and wherein based on the critical event indication the recording device is configured to establish a prior point in time of the audio and/or video recording as a beginning of a critical event and preserve recorded audio and/or video from the beginning of the critical event to an end recording point. The system may employ wireless technology to transmit information, such as GPS location, and stream video/audio to a remote location in real time.
