New holster forces all nearby body cams to start recording when gun is pulled

quote [ xon, the body cam division of Taser International, has announced Signal Sidearm, a gun holster sensor that detects when a weapon has been removed from a holster and automatically prompts all nearby body cams to start recording.

The Signal Sidearm, despite its slightly confusing name and provided artwork, isn't a pricey, complex smart weapon, but rather a sensor that can be retrofitted into "most existing firearm holsters." The sensor is powered by a coin cell battery that lasts approximately 1.5 years. It sounds like the sensor is technologically very simple, which hopefully means it's also very reliable. ]

The way they work now is the moment the decided button is pushed it actually is starts the recording 30 seconds (or something like that) before.

The way they work now is the moment the button is pushed the video begins recordeding 30 seconds (or something like that) before. The body cam has a constant buffer.

Edit: words.
