Abstract: A wireless programmable microphone apparatus and related devices are disclosed. The programmable wireless microphone apparatus may be used by a law enforcement agency to collect data that may be used as evidence in a legal proceeding. The wireless programmable microphone apparatus includes one or more internal storage devices that may be secure storage drives and/or be pre-configured to execute one or more related applications in a plug-in fashion. The storage device may contain a suite of applications that are pre-configured to execute without requiring “installation” on a computer system prior to execution. The wireless programmable microphone may have one or more wireless communication and connection interfaces to stream audio and associated metadata to an associated mobile surveillance system. The wireless communication interfaces may also be used for device authentication. Optionally, audio and metadata information may be stored locally and synchronized with other devices at a later time.

Abstract: A portable camera apparatus may be used by a law enforcement agency to collect data that may be used as evidence in a legal proceeding. The portable camera apparatus may include internal storage device(s) that may be pre-configured to execute one or more related applications upon (e.g., plug-in, network or other) connection to a computer device. The storage device(s) may contain a suite of applications that are pre-configured to execute without requiring “installation” on a computer system prior to execution. Additionally, the storage device may be a secure storage drive for use with an associated pre-defined computer device or set of devices. The secure storage drive allows access only when properly authenticated to the computer device attempting to access the secure storage drive. The portable camera apparatus may include smart docking and/or recharging bays.
