Axon Body 2

Axon Signal reports events such as the camera can start recording when opening the door or activating the light bar.

In the summer of last year, Baltimore police officer Richard Pinheiro submitted a body taking lens as evidence of drug damage. In the video of Pinheiro taken with the Axheon Body 2 camera, he squatted in the backyard of the garbage for a while and found a soup can that was thrown in the garbage. He picked it out and pulled out a small pouch of white pills, and he and the other two officials later claimed to be suspects. Pinheiro and other officials arrested the man and subsequently presented evidence against him to the Baltimore police - his testimony, their testimony and video

Pinheiro and other parties seemed to be unaware that the Axon Body 2 camera had a "fail-safe" function. The camera is always on and saves 30 seconds of material at all times before a person presses the recording button. This 30 seconds is quite another story. Little jury - - In the shot, Pinheiro, who did not notice anyone, he will see that his pocket medicine bag. Looking at the whole view of the other two officers, he placed a long bag in the soup pot and put it on the ground. Pinheiro then presses the record "incorrectly" discovers the soup pot when the camera rolls.

At the beginning of this year, the electronic stun gun maker Taser (now renamed Axon) bought two artificial intelligence enterprises. Taser / Axon has 80% share of the US police camera market, and these videotapes are stored in a private database police body camera and are now developing "predictive policing" technology I advertise it. As privately held companies, they are not subject to the same public record laws and the supervision of police stations. Considering that the racial prejudice of the police is well documented and shows a negative feedback loop this is terrible. What are the possible biases in their datasets and algorithms?
