The following information was taken from the V.I.O. product datasheet for the POV.1:
"The POV.1 from V.I.O. captures hands-free digital video/audio from the most critical point of view - yours. The entire system is build to withstand exposure to the elements as well as the harsh duty conditions faced in public safety. The lens can be mounted to headgear, ballistic shields, firearms, robots or vehicles to accurately document critical incidents. The lightweight POV.1 can be worn inconspicuously on a vest, duty belt or turnout gear. The miniature wireless remote can be used within a 10-foot (approximate) radius of the POV.1. Ease of use enables effective information sharing from operations to command, incident command to emergency operations center, officer to district attorney and district attorney to jury."
